Yes. Starting soon* every member will get a free daily limit** on thread views and posts. After that limit is reached, each thread viewed will cost $0.05, posts made will cost $0.10 unless its a new thread -those will cost $0.15. Payment will be required prior to posting/viewing, no running-tab allowed. Additionally, payment must be made via direct upload of exact change (pennies, nickels, and dimes) via your CD-ROM drive or through a USB adapter. For somewhat obvious reasons, no change will be provided. Foreign currency will be accepted, though a 14.7% conversion fee will be applicable, except for Canadians where the rate will be 2.4%. Anyone caught using fake currency or slugs will be required to pay a fine equal to 100x what they were supposed to pay in the first place. We have seen what micro transactions have done for gaming, and feel that they will enhance our sites in ways which are too numerous and difficult to mention.
*as is often the case on Camaro5, soon refers to a time that is at least in the distant future and has a good chance of never actually arriving.
**the likely limit will be 'infinite'
