i just headed to the Hard forums a few minutes ago to see how things were after a few years away from it, to find out that the General Mayhems (off topic) is now a paid subscriptions only forum. my thoughts were, "how ghey is this sh1t?'. what if ATOT was a subscription forum. would you pay to play? i wouldnt!

I have paid for AT before and would do it again if it were available.

its surprising that how many people visit these forums daily compare to the number that would pay. keep voting guys.

Sure.

If it's like...another site I won't mention, for $30 a year or whatever, sure. There is a lot of valuable information in these forums.

Definitely. Unless it was something ridiculous. But I doubt it would ever be more than $30/yr, else it'd totally drive people away. I'd pay up to that.

I was about to say no, but then I remembered that AT did at one time have a subscription and I paid.

If there were a free trial period before having to pay... yes. Assuming i had not been here before. There are other sites that are subscription only to enter. Since I cannot see if it is worth it or not, I just find another site. If I could look around first, I could make an informed decision.

As far as Anandtec... yes, I would pay for it. And I think it would be an entirely different place in OT and P&N if it were subscriptio only.
