    They'd have to fix the screwed up food database, exercise calculator, and figure out how to keep MFP online and running smoothly. At that point - maybe. But there are so many free sites...probably not.

    I don't understand why the adverts cause people so much upset, I don't even notice them :ohwell:

    I wouldn't because I don't use it very much! But if I was an everyday user then I would consider it only if I saw great results from it. Lets remember people pay for a whole lot of other things they probably shouldn't. Later!!!!

    Heck no - I would go find another free service.

    I love this site and am addicted to it, I log my food every day. But would I pay for it? No. I would be sa if it started costing, because I would have to leave. The whole reason I tried it out was because it is free! :)

    No because there are too many other apps out there that are free. I'd start using my fitbit account for all the stuff I log here. I wouldn't pay for this.

    Yes I would. Even if it were an upgraded membership to remove ads, and maybe "members only" forums.

    I'm a developer though, so I'm definitely biased against the "yay we have the Internet, everything is free now" mentality. I think it's ok to charge for things, especially if it's an upgrade to something that's offered for free.

    What Ben said.

    Except I'm not a developer. I can point at a computer and say it's not a toaster. Does that count?

    If there was an SLA, transparency in upcoiming features and bugfixes, and access to export my data, then I might pay a nominal fee.

    Nope. I'd just log the old fashioned way... that is, I'd write down what I eat and how much I think it is in calories.

    Yes. Unless it is, indeed, a toaster. Then it doesn't count.

    There are other free calorie counters. I'd move on to one of them.

    No..too many other options available for free.

    BTW, you can get rid of the ads by installing AdBlock on your Firefox or Chrome browser. I haven't seen an ad in years, here or any other site.

    Omg, best advice I've ever been given. Just installed it. Thank you!

    Flat out no. I enjoy and appreciate this site but there will always be one to take its place without a monthly fee.
