I have recently created a subscription plan whereby people can contribute via an automated plan rather then me having to do it manually. For $25 a year, you get the snazzy contributor's icon below your name when you post messages, plus some additional bells and whistles as enhancements. I'm going through many of the options and will add more as I see the opportunity to make a dividing line between regular members and those willing to help out by contributing funds to this site. One of these days I will itemize those enhancements, but for now I guess you have to look and see for yourself as I come up with them.
If I should finally decide to go with a more expanded plan whereby only paying members will have access to certain forums, I will be using this method as well, and likely just expand the Contributor members for this status. There may be a lower level that ONLY includes access to those forums under consideration for a lesser fee, but at least this will give you an idea about how all of this will work.

Thanks to everyone for their help. I'm trying to make this as painless as possible to everyone (me included) so I can keep coming up with new and interesting things for you all to experience here.
