Should OCUK forums go subscription only?

If you want to pay to use this forum, I have no problem with that, just give me £50 a month and we are both happy! :D

No.

I would only pay if 5UB worked nakedly. :D

I have just woke up and I am half naked, send me £30 please!

(Wow, I should be a businessman, I am gonna get rich fast!)
 
I think the ocuk forums should go subscription only, say access for 30 days for £4.99.

This would surely get rid of all the kids and morons leaving only the good people left to post and make a telling contribution.

The added revenue could be used to discount products and run high quality competitions for the remaining high brow users left.

What do you think?

See the beauty of the subscription system is that all the negative Nelly's are the ones who berate Call of Duty each year and still buy it! Win Win, the very few who won't cough up don't contribute in a positive way to ocuk.
The handful that did will be replaced by better, more affluent, and sharper members, don't forget the subscription fee money can pay for proper articles, for some high-brow discussion and analysis.

No more Dolph with his privatise everything mantra, no more Stauckhousen with the polar opposite view.

OCUK subscription is the utopia, I'm going to formulate a proper proposal for this and submit it to Caseking.

How can the Don'd categorically say this can't happen when OCUK is not independent anymore?

We need blue sky thinking on this...

This place would be boring otherwise, and dead.
It will never happen any time soon. :)

You do realise that people simply won't pay. They will go somewhere else. The information you can get on these forums can be found anywhere else online. The user base will simply dissolve. Even hardocp doesn't do this. They only have/had a pay private sub forum.

Besides all of your insight into this amazing business venture seems to come from your time in GD. Which is where 'morons' get a bit more slack. OCUK is one of the best for moderation and user moderation.

Your idea is moronic. Please stop going on about it. You have no evidence to ack up your plan because when it's been tried before, it's failed. Hard.

Mate you are proof that the "more affluent" members can be asshats as well.

What happens if Dolph and Stockhausen pay for a subscription?

I've seen it on other forums, people who subscribe think they are more entitled to act like a ***** just because they are paying for the site, they seem to be the ones who kick up a fuss more.

Beggers belief how you think this is a good idea and despite the people in this thread outnumbering you opinion wise you STILL want to take your idea to Caseking?

If they agree with your idea this place is dead, I come here for the characters and the help, there are PLENTY, and no offense to OCUK, better and more interesting forums dedicated to tech around the internet that people will just move to.

I'm now 100% convinced that everyone is being trolled, I don't think this was meant to be a serious thread... :p

If we were being trolled he wouldn't have got nasty with me and making stuff up about me.
Obviously one of those posters that doesn't read threads properly and makes up there own stuff so he wouldn't be part of our new pay regime.

Maybe he just hates you. :(
