So long as a Paypal account is required to make a > $500 contribution, I won't be contributing at any of those tiers. I know I'm in the minority though so I doubt this will have a big impact on the overall funding.

You can change this to: 1 ad per week on a RSS feed vs 1 ad per week on an entire website and the answer would still turn out to be Ad Supported Websites. RSS users are an insanely small group compared to overall users on the web. So yeah,

Then how about restricting it to being a feature for design and technology projects? Per their own guidelines and vision, they have very few requirements for these types of projects. Additionally, these "we will support X" type extra goals

Kickstarter should implement feature/subproject goals to fix these problems. To illustrate: Say the main project needs $200k to get funded. This becomes the main target goal. If this is reached, the core is funded and those backers pay up.
