Am I imagining things, or are GD:P posters disproportionately no-stars?
In GD and the Lounge it seems like almost every poster has a donor star.

In GD:P it seems like a greater percentage don't.

If it were only brand new posters it would make sense. But some have hundreds of posts.

2. Maybe some posters can't afford it?

Or don't feel compeled?

Voters oftentimes vote for a candidate without having contributed. I don't see where this post of yours goes? :shrug:

8. The percentage should be roughly the same across the main boards.
Why would GD:P be different?

4. Eh, as long as they let me post.
I won't donate. :P
