I voted Community Support because first and foremost I have come to rely on this site for cohesive discussion on my favorite hobby. PLUS this was the place I could consistently find info on 4e before it came out...

I felt I needed to write because I wanted to make sure the importance of the WotBS pdfs had in furthering the value for me... a LOT!
 


I'm still riding on a multi-year supporter account, and I snagged it for two reasons initially: a custom title and the search feature.

I'll keep it up in the future whenever it expires, but had you asked me a year ago I might not have said the same. I had a lull in visiting and posting here around when 4e came out, both from being sincerely jaded over the edition and its marketing, and what I felt at the time was a bit too much overt support for 4e by the site itself, the domination of the front page by WotC stuff, the barrage of WotC banner ads, and the almost poisonous atmosphere if you didn't treat it like the second coming (whereas I viewed it as less Messiah and more Bar Kochba).

However it's gotten better, I still prefer to get RPG related news and discussion here, and moderation has kept the worst of the edition warriors in check. The DDI potpourri in General is sometimes a bit much, but lately some overtly Rules stuff has been nipped in the bud, so that's been better as well.

End result: it's a seriously minor expense given how much time I'm here lurking, and I'll happily support the place given how long I've been here.
 


Chalk me up as community support.

I've been putzing about ENworld (and Eric Noah's 3rd Edition News) since late 98. I'd never picked up a CS account largely due to the fact that I never had the spare cash to prepay for a year or more. The monthly sub is a lot easier to manage though.
 



I voted Community Support.

I simply wanted to give something back.

I happen to be unemployed and living from paycheck to paycheck right now via my VA Disability. Still, for $3.00 per month, I can afford to throw in my 3 coppers, and it just makes me feel better by doing so. D&D is indeed a big part of my life and has been since I was 18 (I'm now 46).

Of course, War of the Burning Sky is a huge benefit, but I did it for the community.

This sounds exactly like what I intended to write - except that I'm not on VA Disability, but on a general Swedish disability payment. (And I'm only 42, but on the other hand I have played D&D since I was twelve.)
