I'm lost at sea here, frankly I'd rather have to pay $10 bucks a year and have a dedicated customer service that I could reach to when stuff like that happens.
$10 that's very cheap for requesting dedicated customer service. Where do you think the mods live?
I really like that idea though. I wouldn't mind paying a good amount of money for a dedicated service that helps me recovering account if it's hacked, or gives me instant support on my queries related to my deleted posts, unhandled reports and such. It will be a very good way to incentivize the forum.
