And then there's this issue of how, unlike your own journal, where you are creating the content that people are drawn to, a community is made up of multiple people contributing their own content. For one person to get all the revenue made from that combined content - well, tricky business, I think.

Its all too much of a clusterfuck really. I dont see how this could work unless they move to a maintainership heirarchy.

The idea that someone can creat a comm, run it for years, need help for a bit for personal reasons then find themselves ousted as volunteer helper gets annoyed is something that bothers me.
Another reason I'd like to see this; LJ was created before 'blogging' took off, and now many of the most succesful blogs are multi-author, but make serious money through ads.
If LJ is to continue to grow in usership, and adverts are going to be on the site (a decision I regret but is unchangeable now), then a way for group blogs to run succesfully on here with revenue going to authors would be a good thing.
As it is, I suspect LJ is so far behind the curve on this pickup is impossible, but it'd be nice to have the option.
