You make sense, and I think it is a worthy proposal. As it stands,
you could "cheat", risk being "exposed" and get "spanked".
In a way, you would still be "paying" for breaking the rules.
For myself, cheating is not something I have ever been able
to bring myself to do. In this case, I'm still trying to get a sense
of the playing field. I'm devoid of interest in a "Gold Pass"
to do what I believe you probably should be permitted to
do with your level of expertise.
But for one small issue, I believe I strongly agree with your
proposal: I don't believe you should be asked to pay for
the priveleges you ask, I believe you have worked hard for
them and that they should be granted on the basis of
demonstrated proficiency to do the "right thing", kind
of like a merit badge or diploma to be conferred, with
"all the rights and priveleges pertaining thereto", something
that ethically ought not come with a price tag. If it goes
"on the block" for a price, that like totally degrades the
whole concept of achievement, merit, and proficiency
as perquisites to the honor.
I shut up now and go to my room. I do so despise myself
for being disagreeable. Maybe I need a nap.
-laters,
Glenn
