This is not an official poll. I am just a normal member.

 

Basically, I like this forum and I am used to ads left and right and top and bottom. I don't like them, but I can live with them.

Now there are also often pop-up ads. I.e. I click on notifications, then I see a full-page ad and I have to click it away.

After I do that, I see my list of notifications. I click on one and then likely I will see another ad which I have to click away.

That is really annoying. The time I see what I want to see is maybe 1minute, and another 3 to 5 minutes to click and wait for ads to go away.

 

I understand that the owners of this site want to make money, that is fair enough. But too many ads are just too many.

I would be willing to pay a fair amount, let's say maybe 100B or 200B per month, to avoid those annoying ads.

How about you? Would you be willing to pay for a forum without ads?

 

Like mentioned above, this is just a poll from a normal member and nothing official. But if many members answer that might be interesting information for the owners.

That must be annoying for you

One mans cheap is another mans expensive.

 

Would need to be in double digits to qualify as cheap

There should be an "absolutely not in a million years" option.

Pay to watch the same bored old faces bickering about the same inane nonsense day in day out? Seriously....

 

There are maybe two threads of interest here with useful info: EV Vehicles in Thailand and the long standing Skytrain information thread.

(Perhaps some others in health or visa forums, not sure)

To even consider paying to use this site, they'd have to stop all the insults. I won't pay to be insulted.

Just charge the ones that do the insulting (and the trolling)!  

A few years ago I gave up on this site due to the ads.

now I never see any ads.

If I pay, can I insult people? That would be a money maker for sure.

You would get a better class of insult, but I doubt you would appreciate that

If you’re not paying, then you are the product.

Perhaps some don't realise that without us there is no forum.

I agree but we could still do without some of them!
