John,

I have seen boards with a lot of traffic offer "Premium" forum memberships. Forum members get to contribute to the financial well being of the site and are rewarded at the same time.

These exclusive memberships include unlimited PMs with no size limit, special title under their username (ie, Contributing Member), increased attachment space allowance, no ads, priority access to server when its really busy, etc

Any plans for something like this?

I also had some ideas along those lines, and was going to make a poll or two so that I could gauge the interest of the other members. I definitely don't want to limit content based on payment (or lack thereof), but things like unlimited PMs and attachment space might be cool. I'll give these things some thought and will be posting a poll sometime after the new main site is launched. Thanks for the suggestions. :)
