A response to the few posts on this thread that challenge Xviper's appeal.
I pay for something that I could get for free because it is the right thing to do; because I want to be a part of something; and because I want to give back.
You really can't justify selfishness with logic. If you refuse to contribute to something worthwhile because you can get it for free, you are using money as the scorecard for your life. There are better ways to measure how well you are doing.
You can keep the $50 in your pocket, or you could help this community continue, prosper and grow. If you can't afford a membership, you are welcome here. If you can, please join us and be a part of something good.

I haven't read the entire thread yet, so I don't know if this has been mentioned yet. I've been a gold member for some time now, and if there was a platinum membership ($100???) I'd gladly participate in that. I figure I get WAY more out of this site than what I pay for membership, and I'm happy to contribute to the maximum membership level to help keep the site funded.
