### Community Fees

Communities can have three fees to help Community Owners profit from their communities while also using fees to help reduce chances of malicious users in a Community as well as spam. These fees are:

* **Membership Fee:** One time membership fee for all Community members when joining the Community. This is not refundable if a member is kicked or leaves
* **Posting Fee:** A non-refundable fee for creating a post in a community feed. This makes members choose what content they feel is important enough to invest in a post creation.&#x20;
* **Staking Fee:** A refundable fee for posting content. This is a tool to prevent spam posts and malicious members from using sock puppets and bot accounts. Staking fees are kept for up to 8 hours and returned if the post is not taken down by community admins.  Members who's posts that are penalized for breaking the rules will not be returned their staking fee.
