Do you think it's a good idea? Did you try this before? Do you think that the price is too high or too low? Do you know any other board that charges for membership other than SA? If so, how much?

Good God It's hard enough to get members to your board when you don't charge anything. I hate to see how hard it would be when you charge people lol
I would re-think that idea real hard
Good Luck -
I pity anyone who would even consider paying to be a member on your board. Actually...I pity anyone who wants to be a member for free as well.
To answer your questions: Horrible idea.Comment

Charging for a board is okay in my opinion, as long as it covers for your site, and your site is a source of content, something like MSDN.
If it's just a board with a small vbPortal page or something, then it's not worth it, but if you've got an online knowledge base with some good articles and reviews, then sure, go ahead and charge!
