PJS website to begin charging

[jasonpeoria911]

I was initially pissed when I read this but if it's anything like most voting websites, you can just clear your cookies and vote again. Hoping that will clear the 15 story view count.

On a side note, I just tried the 20 views on the SJ-R. It brings up a green box saying I went over my 20 views and only asks if I want to sign up for the $6.95 a month or just continue reading. It let me continue on and read other stories when I selected to continue reading. Maybe this is just a test run as I know the PJStar said that Gatehouse wasn't going to start this until April 4th.

No thanks! :roll:
