Straight-forward question. Now that we've had the option available for a while, how many of you have subscribed?

Nope. I'm on a 28.8 dial-up connection, so I wouldn't be seeing any speed increase :)

no, i'm not. I dont plan on it either. If they force you to pay, i'll just move to another forum. It does seem that the non-subscribing members have had a considerable speed hit.

I've got the same, but I notice the diff :) Subscriber server's not nearly so busy. Plus it's nice to support AT :)

Nope, and I still load plenty fast... tho I am sure they will do their best to slow it down.

No way. Paying for a cheesy online community is beyond my realm of desire. If it does become mandatory I'll just use another forum, like someone else here said.

Yep. With advertising rates no longer covering the cost of bandwidth, I have no problem supporting the forums.

i dunno why, but i really have no problem with paying for things that i use often, and that give me an option of paying or not paying. likewise, i pay for audiogalaxy gold.

No, I'm very, very broke... of course I don't think I'd pay to use a message board anyway. :)
