Go up one level in this thread


A)I will pay a reasonable fee for the forums

B)I would rather contribute voluntarily for the forums. I would personally
contribute {number}$ (this will give Steve an idea of how much money the
voluntary option would raise)

C)I would rather the forums remain free of any cost to the members  and
explore the option of having both forums removed to another server

D)I would prefer to just close the forums altogether and revert to using the
Usenet news groups

I would urge people not to vote for A. Despite the apparent enthusiasm for a
fee, it is my view that the forums would inevitably fall into the following
death spiral - and probably more quickly than most people seem to think:

 >---------------------> fewer members -----------------------v
 |                                                            |
 |                                                            |
 ^-----------less value for existing members <----------------<

I personally would not pay a fee.
