no, I think you get the wrong end of the stick. Ward is a good guy and he voulenteers to be a moderator. The forum is sponsored by, featuerd and provides a platform for feedback about the magazine. - far from being just a trumped up name (if you buy he magaziine you'll even find quotes from the forum in there).
Smoe of the moderators on that forum (and all of the admin) work for future publishings, and I guess a part of their working day would be to look at that forum, hence they are paid. - however some of the times the admin posts are made at insane times of night, obviously the admin also care about the forum and readers of the magazine.
