As I said before (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2485318.msg26028401#msg26028401) we would like to buy access to BitcoinTalk forum that bypasses Cloudflare.

Anyone else is willing to pay to use BitcoinTalk?

Actually,even I would want that,ever since cloudfare has been implemented, cloudfare has been so annoying. The server takes too much time to load,cloudfare blocks the usage of some words and it is just ridiculous.
It would be great if we have like new types of memberships like the copper membership,but with more salient features for higher ranked users. But apparently theymos doesn't want any extra income for the forum for now,so I guess we just have to deal with it.

It's a good idea, but I'm not sure how I would set that up. I'd need either one unique server IP per user or some method of segregating users so that you can't just pay the fee, find the IP address of the "pro" forum, and attack that.

I could use the CF API to whitelist IPs for a fee, but most people don't browse from a static IP. Maybe it's possible to use CF page rules to whitelist certain cookies; I'm not sure.

Though I didn't understand the jibber jabber part of that, please do implement it. It would really help a lot of users who actually care about the forum and don't like that cloudflare shit.

Yes please theymos!

Most users wont use static IP's so something with cookies/linked to accounts is surely needed.

You will need a system that automatically blacklists accounts in the case an attacker pays to be able to attack the forum.
