Sorry, I won't pay, as a matter of principle.
It's like government asking for more tax yet delivering less in my mind. Or pay TV then drowning content with adds.
Enjoy!

This is exactly how I see it. I am on hundreds of forums, most that survive and thrive through site sponsors, less sponsors than this site with similar traffic, and by far this is the worst forum when it comes to down time and load time. It is on par with the late 90's/early 2000's forums. That's fine with me, I really don't care, it is what it is. The owner is not begging for donations or for people to buy memberships, rather it is other forum members doing it which makes the suggestion irrelevant. Either way, purchasing a membership seems to not help the problem with this forum, which is down time. The search functions and galleries seem to work just fine. I would actually get rid of the galleries to non paying members...if that helped the forum.
In the end, I won't pay to be on a forum that is constantly down. But I will also live with the huge annoyance that it has become until a better forum with the massive amount of content that this one has comes along.
