Absolutely. But it better help rid the place of idiots and some ads.
SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.
Ok less ads and more restrictions on the nonsense posts and scammers. What else might make it worth paying to use a board?
Glad to assist in your marketing survey.
The other thing is a shitload of members. And as far as I know, GFY tops all of the other boards on that one.

How do you suggest that, if someone pays, they'll make no nonsense posts or scam no one?
Simple you enforce the rules. If someone breaks them you cancel their membership.
Some of the biggest business deals are done on the greens of some high priced members only golf clubs. You can have fun and conduct good business at the same time but paying a membership helps keep the rift raft out.
^ this is how gfy will look if it went paid - boring.
So you come here to be entertained? No offense but thats actually kind of sad.
There are so many better ways of having fun and being entertained. But if you come to a webmaster board to goof off sometimes and make good business contacts and promote yourself then a paid board makes some sense. From an advertisers perspective do you want to advertise your program to a bunch of surfers and webmasters with 100,000 posts that don't spend any time running their business anyways or would you rather reach webmasters that are serious enough about making money to join an exclusive business board?

I come here because after working on my site i get certain amound of free time. Who the hell wants to be anywhere thats boring as fuck? Why fix something thats not broken?
Hi Xlogger, I hear you. You dont think anythings wrong as is . Thats cool.
I was just putting out an idea for discussion. I dont work for GFY and seriously doubt they'd ever do what I suggested. To each his own.

It's been suggested before. Another suggestion was having people pay a subscription fee to use the search function, back when it was always either unavailable or slowing things down too much.
No one will pay because anyone can start a competing board for free. The small-timers would go elsewhere, and without them there would be no big-timers (or at least a lot less). It's the lightly moderated, borderline schizophrenic nature of the board that keeps people coming back.
