January 20, 200719 yr If it was structured even close to how Offtopic.com has their subscription - defiant no; never going to pay for basic forum functionality. As for the "improvements" you listed; still a no. I get by perfectly fine with what's here at the moment.
January 20, 200719 yr The extra forums and privileges sound good. I'd sign up to begin with and then after that see how things go, depending on how much I liked it. Though you might have me for life membership if there was an option in the membership for a mod free board (or at least a board where the mods didn't hate upon you for the tinniest little things!searches for Slimfar :P Na, I probably wouldn't be that desperate. You take the good with the bad I suppose. :wink:
January 20, 200719 yr -No short time posting limit for consecutive posts You WANT to bully the server? It's there for a reason ;) -Larger avatar Bandwidth issues, they try to keep this 56k-friendly and such -Larger sig and more lines Once again thatd clutter the board with oversized sigs, drawing away attention from the content too much -Large location Im not really against having that larger, unless having it too long stretches your post too much (avatars, post counts, RSN etc already stretch the shorter posts by a fair bit) -Access to 3 or 4 more forums Access to a forum should be because you belong there (due to the nature of the board) and NOT because you paid for it... -Upgraded and more thorough profile What should be added then? -Access to a private Tip It IRC chats (Runescape related, Clans, Market, etc) There's a free one and the number of people using it is already very limited, a paying one would be.. obsolete. -Newsletter on Tip It upgrades before the general public knows Fail to see why that is an advantage... Only leads into discussing it before its release and thus showing off on forums 'I can read this and you can't ' -On site, special access areas (Runescape related) The crew works hard to make things for THE ENTIRE PUBLIC. The crew does this voluntarily and should NOT be working for 'the elite few'. It's never been the point of this site/community. So, would you sign up or not? No. If Tip.it would turn into a money farming thing I'd probably even just move on. If you want to support this website, just click the ads!
January 20, 200719 yr Not only would I not pay for it, I'd leave. I wouldn't want to be part of a forum that was managed in such a way.
January 20, 200719 yr Not only would I not pay for it, I'd leave. I wouldn't want to be part of a forum that was managed in such a way. Agreed, I like it working the way it does, indiscriminate of money. "Da mihi castitatem et continentam, sed noli modo"
January 20, 200719 yr It'd 'seem' like less money for me - only about ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâã2 rather than $3, even though it wouldn't be. If you could pay by SIM (texting by phone) like on RS then I definitely would!
January 20, 200719 yr Its something i suggested YEARS ago but nothing ever came of it. Mercifull <3 Suzi "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape. If we let players start doing this, it devalues RuneScape for others. We feel your status in real-life shouldn't affect your ability to be successful in RuneScape" Jagex 01/04/01 - 02/03/12
January 20, 200719 yr If I had money to blindly throw away...I still wouldn't. I'd go buy a South American tribe to re-inact The Contest episode from Seinfeld. This is how much you all raised for charity. Thank you.
January 20, 200719 yr -No short time posting limit for consecutive posts You WANT to bully the server? It's there for a reason ;) if enogh people want it they can jsut buy a new server
January 20, 200719 yr No, I'm sorry, but I don't think I would :x Everybody hug and spread the love :D
January 20, 200719 yr Hell no. I'd understand if there's thousands of users here at a time, but it's not the case. :: Guess the Movie Contest Champion: pfilc23 ::
January 20, 200719 yr Sorry, but I think it's not that good of an idea. Remember you can still earn tip.it about $0.05-$0.15 a day by clicking the banner ad. They get paid for click-throughs, not just the views per 1000 banners. As mentioned early, big avatars and signatures can also be a huge annoyance. I brought it up with the staff of another forum I modded, and less than half agreed it's annoying, so they let them keep the massive signatures. I eventually left. It messes up posts and takes up too much space. I think a better idea for a fundraiser (if one was needed) is to charge $1-$2 for a custom title under your name on tip.it, some people would probably find it acceptable 8-)

January 20, 200719 yr If I had money to blindly throw away...I still wouldn't. I'd go buy a South American tribe to re-inact The Contest episode from Seinfeld. Family Guy :P . Just saying that because I sat here thinking about that for about five minutes before I figured it out. Thought I'd save others some time. :D I think a better idea for a fundraiser (if one was needed) is to charge $1-$2 for a custom title under your name on tip.it, some people would probably find it acceptable Cool I was going to mention that earlier in the thread, then I realized I wouldn't really even know what to put there.
January 20, 200719 yr No, of course not. What's up with these hypotethical (sp?) questions the past few days. Signature by Maurice SendakWhen the stars make you drool just like a pasta fazool, that's amore!
January 20, 200719 yr No, of course not. What's up with these hypotethical (sp?) questions the past few days. That's the only kind of thread Viktor can make, lol :: Guess the Movie Contest Champion: pfilc23 ::
January 20, 200719 yr Author That's the only kind of thread Viktor can make, lol #-o Ugh, amateurs...:XD: Me doing staff.
January 20, 200719 yr No, of course not. What's up with these hypotethical (sp?) questions the past few days. Watch how these hypothetical questions magically become real, once one is supported. :P Nice spot Indy ^-^ This is how much you all raised for charity. Thank you.

January 21, 200719 yr Nah. I don't think so. It might even get bad after awhile... "Members" would end up looking down on upon non-members, and it'd just get nasty. Kinda like Runescape. ;D It really has
January 21, 200719 yr I wouldn't pay for it. Instead I'd work on promoting my own forums (which will never cost to use). Internet Marketing For Newbies
