I'd say it whether or not it's a good idea depends on your forum. I think most forums want to have as many members as possible so it's not a good idea. But if you have something that people will pay for and can't get anywhere else then it could work. I can think of a few examples of that.

Anyway, there's a mod for that but it's for vb4. [S]I don't think there's one for vb3.[/S] (See below). But (as you probably know) you can set up your forum with a "Registered User" group that can't really see anything, then use the existing paid subscriptions.
