I'm confident you won't have to either. There would have been no need to make all of those fast and furious, mostly one liner posts if a paid site support option were already in place.If a mod confirms that he has actually paid for his site supporter status BEFORE OR DURING his run then I will drive to wherever he like, personally apologize, shake his hand and pay for his site renewal for the next 5 years.
After what we saw today, I'm confident I won't have to.
