let's say for free you can lurk, but if you want to post and say bad things about beyonce or talk about fake boobs...$10 per month.

would you pay it?

If I could lurk but not post... no.

If I couldn't even view the site...

Maybe 5 dollars per month. But that's only if the number of people here remained the same, which it wouldn't, because you'd have to pay. So, also no.

I would pay 5 $ per month just to have access to P&R only smile - the peeps there and all the incredible things we all share in that forum nod

That's my fave forum nod I learn a lot about people
( good smile and bad neutral ) in there and the information everyone shares

Exactly. Your art sucks so much no one would pay for it.

I wouldn't pay for a membership either. I'm here to chat with friends. If this site will ask for a pay, I'd just contact them through Facebook or MySpace and such.

Wasn't one of the issues Prince had with Housequake the fact that the guy who ran it was asking for donations at one point? Prince tried to say the site was making money from his image or whatever? As much as I (and I'm sure others) would LOVE to help out Ben money-wise with the site, now might really not be the best time to start something like this.

If he ever DOES make paid memberships a reality tho, what would work best IMO is still have free memberships available. The free memberships would allow people to do everything they can do now, but for like maybe 20 bucks a year you would have access to a few extra features, like non-expiring orgnotes, instant avatar approval, and maybe some additional content allowed for your profile (like maybe multiple pictures or something).

Sure, I'd pay to keep you off of here. Not $10 per month, but I would pay.

Honestly, I wouldn't. Much as I love the Org and have been a member here for years, I love groceries and having a place to live more. I don't make enough to justify many frivolous expenses and if it came to being charged to be an active member here, sad as it would make me to lose out, I'd have to give it a pass.

Though perhaps Ben could set up a donation system, so members can donate when they're able instead of a monthly required fee? Sure, you'll get some people who never donate, but there'd be enough that would to make up for it.

I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that
