    Paying for forums would be awful. Think about the Bug section alone. The players on these forums help improve ESO tremendously.

    What the F? You know how many millions of forums there are on the Internet? ZoS stupid enough to dare try to charge to post on a forum, an unofficial one would be created within the hour.

    In fact... there are already dozens of unofficial ESO forums.

    some MMO's have "zone" and "world" chat options ONLY available in the crown stores.
    if you do not have "zone" and "world" chat tickets, then you cannot speak in zone chat, nor world zone chat.

    I bought the game, and have an ESO account. that should give me posting rights and privileges. Anyone that has a connection to the internet and can type in https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com should be able to read the forums.

    Companies have tired previously to lock forum access behind paywalls and they have mostly failed. 90% of the forum users would object the the paywall and then they would all leave to other places like Reddit. If ZOS did implement such a thing all it would do is lose them a ton of good will. They would also lose a tool to gauge player reactions, feedback, questions, etc.


    Also what is with your polls and them not having the option that you know everyone would select?

    Would that fee including automatic filtering of stupid, pointless polls?

    Because that would greatly affect my answer.

    What is the purpose of this thread?

    ThIS forum functions as a communication platform between ZOS and some percentage of eso players. The idea to pay - whatever-amount-of-money for it is, itself, ridiculous.

    Can I find some info here? Yes and no. The basic info I can find on the main news site. This is a commentary outlet place.

    As for game info and help. I can find it on many streamers' and players' blogs..and they don't require fee..if anything..donations to support the players and their work and a free add they do for ZOS.

    So why you'd even think it's possibly a good idea to charge for the access to this forum is beyond me... SERIOUSLY.

    - Dunmer Templar dps/healer [she's a healer, then again she likes inferno staff too...]
    And..

    Really? How much do you think your posts/comments are worth?

    I'll be honest, I like to think I do my best to be helpful and sometimes witty, but I certainly dont expect anyone to pay to read my opinions about stuff. That'd be pretty silly and I'd feel obligated to get an editor to catch my typos.

    Everything I actually need to know about the game I can get from the ESO website, guildmates, or dedicated build sites.

    As others have said, where's the "zero" choice?

    At most, it should be like other regular MMOs - if you can play the game (bought the game, have an account), you can use the forum.
