Ancient Mariner, I strongly doubt many really cannot afford $11 a year. (92c a month).
I am equally sure in those very rare cases..... there are several of us that would happily assist to keep those users part of this community.
Why others choose not to stay is up to them....
I think we should be sad to see most of them go, but ultimately it will be a personal choice and it's not up to us to pigeon hole those that choose to leave.
