Something I came up with literally less than a minute ago out of the blue. How many of you would pay a few dollars to the site to stay a member of Vizzed?

I would probably stay. It's a good site, and even though I really hope I would never have to pay, I would.

Are we talking anually? Monthly? or just a 1 time payment?

1 time payment for sure.... anually maybe... but not monthly. Unless by not paying I just gave up the right to play the games. I can live without those

I was figuring out what a decent payment method would be for this question, but annually sounds fitting.

I think I very small annual fee is reasonable. Especially to keep the games going. Considering how much bandwidth is used to host them.

For $3-4 I would definitely stay.
That is nothing compared to how much time I spend on here.
I wouldn't like it if it did get put in place, but I would still probably do it.
But as geeo has said, annually, not monthly.

To be honest I wouldn't pay because I don't use the games. Maybe charge a fee to the people who want to play games that sounds more fair.

Also there would have to be a disclaimer mentioning that what people are paying for is bandwidth not the games themselves or that could land vizzed in legal issues.

Maybe Vizzed could offer people the ability to pay with Viz for memberships. $4 = 4000 Viz is pretty cheap.

Paypal would be the payment system used most likely.

Only real problem with doing this would be visitors. Lots will leave when they discover they must pay money to play it.

You would definitely also see an astronomical drop in activity here if in order to even post you would still have to pay. I'm not sure what we would happen with me. I haven't been with the place for long. Well left me rephrase that- I haven't been active here for a long time yet. Paying so soon would make me feel like I'm wasting money. I think what might happen is that so many people would stop coming and thus greatly reducing the amount of activity. There wouldn't be much going on at all and the board would feel dead. I would immediately bail out.

If I was here for a long time I would develop an attachment the site and I would be on here for a while before pulling the plug on my self.

Jigsaw: I agree to an extent.... you'd be amazed at how many times I heard "I can't believe this site is free" when people would join the vizzed chat.

I think you'd find more people willing to pay a very small fee than you think. Not to use the forums of course.... but to use the games.

Would any of you stay if you had to pay to post? That's something else to think about. I don't think ANYBODY would create a site like that, nor do I know of one, but how many of you are loyal to Viz to THAT extent?

You should check out SomethingAwful, one of the internets biggest forums and yes, it's pay to post. Albeit a one time payment.

Oh and, I wouldn't pay to post here, no way.

Another place I know of that charges to post is Experts Exchange but it's worth the money if you want really good advice for stuff, like yahoo answers without all the spammers who don't answer your questions.

David will be charging money on his "invention" he has and is going to implement it soon but it has nothing to do with paying fee's for any of the games you see in the RGR. But it is gaming related that is all I can say

I didn't know he was working on a gaming project other than the SNES emulator. Is this something he's keeping to himself for now? I can only guess it's costing him a lot money that he'll be charging us for it.
