If you can think of other things you would like for be a paid member let me know.

I don't like taking money from people just for not seeing adds.

I was think like a private section with some giveaways/competitions that only the paid members will get access to or something like that.

It all depends on what you guys are willing to pay and what you want in return.

If you want to pay $100 a month i can come up with some awesome ideas but if you want to pay $2 a month there is not much i can do with that unless we have a few hundred members willing to pay it.

ahh thats a good idea, I never thought of that. I don't know if i can restrict themes to usergroups but is sounds like it should be pretty easy if vBulletin supports it.

At first you could charge a smaller amount and allow people to have special titles maybe, though that can be a hassle and also be confusing. Maybe just put Geek Pro for all paid members.

The special section with giveaways/competitions is good, but you would need higher subscription price to give stuff away. I am sure I have some stuff packed away that we could use.

Sounds like this could be a great idea.

Let me think it over and see what i can come up with. I will go and have a look at some other forums and see what they offer to paid members.

I've followed the grammar discussion with interest, but I don't think we actually heard what company provides the links that jump out of words.

Is that the Adwords program?

I'm just curious because I've been paying more attention to Adsense lately, and I've noticed that mentioned at the Adsense site.

I'm almost positive that it is not part of the Adsense program. I signed up for it, and found no mention of the link ads anywhere on the site. I don't even think google provides them.

Thanks for the link. I'm a little hesitant to give out my tax info/SSN to an unknown site. How safe would you say it is? How often do you get paid? How do you get paid?
