Although the MOC member numbers are now well into the 8000s, over the years probably close to 2-3,000 have been deleted. Purges are conducted every 12-18 months and members who have not logged on in a year or more are removed from the membership rolls and member numbers are not re-used.
And, of those members remaining, only about 150-200 members are truly "active." So, if you figure $10/yr per member brings it closer to $2,000/yr. But you know as well as I do that only a small number of members actually contribute. I have no idea what it costs to keep this forum going, I just know that a lot of people get a lot of enjoyment and information from the forum.
A "fair amount" to contribute is what you are comfortable with contributing.
