If Bungie decided that they wanted to charge you a small fee to be a member of Bnet, would you? By small fee I am talking $10-$20 for a year of membership.

I'd like to be half-man half-tree in an octopus' garden in the shade.

Just for the ability to post on the forums? No. If it was something like Bungie Pro that included other benefits, then I'd probably buy it.

My last post on the B.net community forum would say something about where we'll move to and where you can find the real community. No, I wouldn't pay to share my wisdom. :D

If you're asking if I would pay for forum access then no. If my purchase (or subscription) actually had value outside the website then I would definitely consider it.

There comes a time in every mans life... and that time is not now.

I also maintain that Chrome is weaksauce, and IE9 is fast and works very well

Yes I would. In theory things would be better too, people wouldn't make so many alternate accounts and there would be less spammers. Only people who are looking for good discussions would exist and that would be great, in theory.

My Best Bungie moment: finally beating all the Halo games on solo legendary.
My Worst Bungie moment: not seeing giant stuffie grunts in the Bungie store.

Only if it came with some sort of additional benefit, such as guaranteed beta access.
Also if this happened the Community would die down to a small group of extremely loyal members. This may be good in some ways (less spam), but it would also make it a lot less fun to be on the forums.

That's what I was thinking.

While that does sound good, I'm positive we have a lot of good members here that are great in discussions but wouldn't want to pay to stay here.

I don't always ban people but when I do I laugh uncontrollably...that's if I was a Forum Ninja.

Truth is a matter of perception.

That's what I was thinking. If that's true then where has all of the money I've been paying go to?!

Probably. Depends on what I get.

I've been here a decent amount of time to know you're all crazy

You'll run out of things to talk about. You and the other two that would pay.

I choose to believe they wouldn't charge mythic members.

Maybe haha. Although I wouldn't just pay for forum access. I'd just move offsite.
