I would pay $5 for an "Ultimate Neffer" title and .05 cents per parody post

I'd pay $10 for "Ns1's a bitch" as my custom title.

Man, I sat here for a good minute and couldn't come up with a witty response to that.

Good show my friend, good show.

Doubt it. Anandtech makes its money from the main site, not from the forums. If anything, the forums will help attract traffic to the main site itself. I thought usually only board-only sites charged usage fees.

I can barely tolerate listening to whiny children when it's free. No way would I pay for the privilege.

Where's the picture with the offtopic site owner carrying his bags of money when you need it?

People forget that the whole purpose of this site was to keep Windows 95 working. ATOT evolved from that beginning to the sophomoric hilarity it is today.

I think a better idea would be to pay to make other users go away. Say you don't like someone, you contribute 10 cents to *on year IP Ban* fund. Enough people contribute, that user is gone.
