OK, here is the part of this that I wanted to save till we got some feedback on the idea in general. If we do it, it would a paid subscription forum only. You would have to pay a sub to even see it. This way it does not impact our tech oriented forums. Our own little underground place if you will.
The sub will be $25 a year.
This will accomplish a few things.
First it might make the forums profitable and be able to support any more hardware upgrades itself.
Admins charged with the responsibility of these forums would get a cut of the sub fee, so they would have ownership in the upkeep of the forums.
The fee will keep out the idiots...for the most part I do think.. But if you want to come post tubgirl for $25 then get banned, be my guest. I will gladly take your money.
The subscribed members would have ownership in knowing that breaking the rules will cost them real $.
I expect it could round out to be a really great forum with a solid group of people that are really looking for a place to hang out and share ideas and experiences as otherwise if you abuse it, it would simply be a waste of your money.
