    This isn't a 'paid' job, per se, is it? It's just a responsibility, right?

    Brad is a paid JM employee, but everyone from Martin on down volunteers their time.

    In general, all admins on Jupitermedia sites are Jupitermedia employees. Marty is one of the exceptions where we have an admin that is not an employee of Jupitermedia. He has, however, been on the forum slightly longer than forever .
