Are you ready to pay for EBT'ing?

I just thinked that are we ready to pay some money for keeping EBT up?

I have used allways only free internet services, but stopped immediately when i have to pay something for using. Nowadays i pay something for just one service, because i have noticed that service is good and useful, and they needed some money to to continuing their work. That's my visitor counter in my homepages, and i pay just few euros in year for that just because it's good (and Finnish), and doesn't do just profit with payments like some large corporations.

I thinked that are we ready to pay for EBT? I could pay few euros for that EBT continues, because this is fun, interesting, and good service for all of us.

But, how much others are ready to pay for this, if EBT goes down someday?

I probably would pay something. Another option would be having a banner on the site, I don't think one banner is too disturbing. And we should have a donating system if someone wishes to support EBT financially. Currently Avij is paying for the whole show.

If it's needed, I'll be able to pay something, but not every month or something.
Just one amount at one moment.

Stupid me, I voted no, it should have been yes, I know it can't be changed.

If I had to pay for this, I would stop.
I see this as an awfully great thing, but nothing useful enough to be paid for.
Besides, having to pay something would surely reduce the amount of users.
And that would mean less notes entered and the site would thus work worse.

Well.. Luckily no ones really thinking that we would have to pay for EBT, so what does this matter anyway? :)

Don't know if I would continue EBT'ing if I would've to pay for it. Maybe a voluntary contribution would be OK.....but I'd rather see some banners on the site if we really need to raise money to keep EBT up.

So far I never have paid for any site on the internet and i'm not willing to change that. And as Dakkus already pointed out: a paying site has less people on board, less people, less notes, less hits, less fun.

I understand that sites cost money, but really... how much can it possibly cost?
Is someone running this site as their full time job?
Like someone a few posts ago said, tracking my euro bills isn't exactly a service worth paying for, it's only a bit of fun and that's all I can ever see it being.
I'm sure you can find enough people who are deeply involved with the project to shell up for hosting expenses.
