Poll: If Anandtech was about to close, how much a month would you contribute to keep it alive?

[kuk]

Just be realistic here ... no gazzilion bucks answers.

How much would you be really willing to spend to keep it up?

OBS: Not just system operational costs, but to have it still reviewing stuff, having up-to-date news and more ...
UPDATE: Added two new answers to the poll ... vote goddamit

$0.00

 

[bigbootydaddy]

30 bucks?? i think thats a lot.

 

[The Stigenator]

Operational costs nothing more... so we cover that..
I am sure most people will pitch in majorly for the forums including me..
I normally dont visit the main site, but do drop by once a week.

Edit:
Oops.. forgot to add in the donation.. $20/mo.. should be fine..

 

[JoLLyRoGer]

Hell, I'd give $10-15/mo. easy, maybe more. This place is home when I'm away on business, and that's quite alot.

Heh, who am I kidding. This place is home anytime I'm on-line.

Now THAT's quite alot!!!

 

[Viper GTS]

$20 a month would be a small price to pay, considering the amount of time I spend here.

Zilch, I can read the hardocp.

 

[AlphaIVT]

-$5

 

[dcdomain]

Well if you think about all the tech support costs you save by coming here, I think $10-$20 a month isn't bad... CLICK ON THE BANNERS hehehe...

 

[bobtist]

I'd have to find another time-waster in my life...

 

[DefRef]

You do know that anyone who says ZERO is gonna get banned, right?

 

[JoLLyRoGer]

A-men that dcdomain, I've gotten skads of good tech support here. I'm sure there are others that can attest to that claim too.

 

[Yzzim]

Naspter started asking people how much they'd pay for their service...and now they're gonna start charging this summer

Wonder if Anantech is gonna do the same :Q

 

I dont think I would pay an equivalent amount for anandtech as I would for my cable service.
Its my most hit site, but not worth that much.
I say a yearly cost would be more realistic.
20-50 a year for a kick @ss BBS and info page would be fair.

 

[HazeGray]

5-10$ tops

 

[ltk007]

I'd prositute myself for anand

 

[nefalicious]

zip zero nada nothing at all not even a penny. but maybe a one time fee of 5 bucks?

 

[RossMAN]

Since I spend 99% of my time in the forums here, if they were to keep the forums alive I could contribute $10 per month but I'd expect the moderators to, oh nevermind

 

[eakers]

nothing
i only come here for this

*kat. <-- cute and honest

 

[paruhd0x]

Are those points or commas in the poll? I'm confused

 

[kami]

nada.

 

[Viper GTS]

paruhd0x...

The US is actually the minority when it comes to using periods for our decimal points. Many countries use the exact opposite we do.

For example:

Us: $1,549,238.63
Them: $1.549.238,63

I'd prositute myself for anand

Which isn't saying a lot, considering he does for everyone else too.

[Whitedog]

Well, if he's not doing to well, oh too bad... Shouldn't have blowed all his money on exotic cars.

 

[Ultima200]

Pay to use fvcking message boards?? You guys seriously need to get out more if u are willing to pay to use forums.

 

[JellyBaby]

The problem is, I might be willing to pay but I'd be in the minority. Most of you certainly would not. Therefore the boards and other valuable content will either dissappear immediately or deteriorate over time. Still if enough adults tossed in a few pennies...who knows?
