I would rather pay you $5 and never see a banner or pop up again. I never click on them, nor find any of them relevant to things i purchase online.
If just 1000 users paid $5 each, how long would that keep your costs at bay?

Why did I get failed for my post lol thought you were asking us for our opinions
EDIT: Back OT, if it helps keep this site up and running for free then I say go for it. I personally don't like ad's of any kind but then again who does... but it probably shouldn't affect me anyways.

I don't think getting 50 people would be hard. I'm sure there's alot of 10+ year RS veterens on here that would do it. I would. RS isn't just a forum, its basically almost like a community now more than just a car forum.
Personally I hate pop ups. Mainly because I work from many different comps, and animated banners slow down the comp. My main comp is ok, but the other 3 are old.

Do it. Takes 5 seconds to close a pop-up, I can't believe people are actually complaining about such a small issue. Bet you it's going to be pokerstars.net or something haha.

RS isn't just a forum, its basically almost like a community now more than just a car forum. | I'd donate too, but I think us veterans are in the minority... Nowadays, a vast majority of users are probably students and they're not used to paying for websites!

There is no harm in having an incentive to donate to RS.
Make special donation tags.
At badger and blade they have it. http://www.badgerandblade.com/index.php?page=support
Something like this may be a good idea. I'm not sure about a yearly fee, but paying once in a while shouldn't be too bad.

Another site i frequent has a 'roll mouse over to pop up ad' thing that somehow I always accidentally roll over and the mother fucker has an impossible to find 'close' button. and if you click on the pop up it opens a new website. so i end up opening up 3 more wbsites until my internet crashes. closing that shit down is harder than punching out god.

I don't mind having a pop up ad as long as it:
i) has a really really really visible close button
ii) doesn't randomly pop up once per day when i'm fapping in the news forum

Not against it. Personally I'm for anything that keeps RS running smoothly; and one ad per day isn't particularly pushing it.
Just as long as it doesn't pop up every time I check the forums, it's all gravy.

I believe NASIOC has an estore | We sell them at the meets. Maybe 5 people buy shirts. And once people find out you have to pay for stickers they're like "...oh. Nevermind then, man."
Lanyards are pretty much the only things that sell.
I'm all for the ads, but I'd prefer not to have the explosm-style pop-under "zomg look at all this crazy stuff that's totally findable elsewhere on the internet and requires four clickthroughs for total bullshit" ads.
