My first instinct to the idea of paid accounts is that it is a nice joke comparing to SA and goes against the traditions of free internet sites and web forums. However I always get the impression Null is low on money, or would be able to work on uptime and stability for the site greatly with more money. I, and many others on the forum, are concerned with uptime and the future of the site and would like to see it continue to exist at all. It would cut down on the annoying new accounts, but also could discourage new people from leaking juicy info and potentially lead to fewer users on the site (not inherently a bad thing if discussion still continues). Is this a serious solution for the site's future?
 
No payment. Null should milk the kiwi silver coins for another run while Chris Chan hype is still high
 
Paid accounts would be a fucking terrible idea, security wise for the user base, for this website.

While I wish Null would accept less autistic forms of payment, that isn't his fault at all. If payment processors won't have anything to do with him, how well do you think it'd go if this forum turned into another Something Awful? What happens when a bunch of unhinged troons give Null their grift money and register?
 
The Bitcoin option is there for a reason. Plus we are about to have fall merch as well. Silver coins are the option.
