I wouldn't....as much as I like AT, there's other places to chat for free. Now if all chat sites started doing it......



I'd have to return to my normal person to person interactions, so nope, wouldn't pay.

I'll have to say no also - especially if they keep mods here. I'm half a step away from being banned for good, and if I'm gonna be paying I'd rather not have to watch my ass whenever I say something.

Hummm ... did you check this?

And I would pay a small fee, but for the whole site, not just forums.

Advertising can handle the expense of this site. While I do greatly appreciate it's existence, I have enough expenses without having to pay for access to forums.

As much as I love this place I would have to say nothing. I already pay $50 a month just for my access. I could find something alse to fill the void
