are you thingking about us!? some of us dont earn as Much as some of you do!? i guess better think not for yourself only. just my opinion :)

Ahh just charge 19.95 a month for all the sig whores. That would cut down a lot of the bull shit. Then review all apps make sure they are adult webmasters that are 18+

I think paid membership would be a bad idea.. However a "members only or a private forum" section that had a monthly cost might not be a bad idea.. Something like webmasterworld has.

This would allow gfy to keep growing but could open up a private section for guys that want to do business and not read through 50 posts of nonsense.

:( :( :( :( :(

I would! :thumbsup $14.95 up to 100,000 posts per month! Just like Napster! :winkwink:

i prefer paying for a private section rather than for the full board :upsidedow

A pay-to-post subforum would be an excellent improvement, for those whose time is valuable and just want to focus on the business-oriented (and domain name!) threads. The sub-forum could be read by anyone, but for posting privileges, one would pay $$$ (either per post, or for a flat rate per month). I believe the newer versions of vBulletin support Paypal and other payment systems, for different classes of member subscriptions, too, so it wouldn't be difficult to add.

As an experiment, maybe make it a $5 flat rate for a trial month of March 2005, and then adjust it depending on what happens?

One could do the same for signatures, $5 to be able to have one. :) That would cut down on the "sig placement" posts.

Anything other than completely free would be the death of this board. You would only see a handful of people left and topics would take days for quality responses. The best way would be to require approval from a mod to join and possibly a monthly review. Proof of involvement in adult should be required and possible refferals.

ok with me

$19.99 may be high, but a few $ a month would keep idiots away.

I still think the idea of a bussiness paid sub-forum would be better.. :)

:thumbsup

No sir, I don't like it... If this happened I'd have to actually go look up news:upsidedow
