Metafilter charges $5 to get an account. If you can't afford the $5, you can email the mods to join for free.
SomethingAwful charges $10 (and offers a platinum account, and a paid add-on to view old threads).
Both of these payments are done through PayPal, and both exist as a way to filter spammers and trolls.
I thought the whole point of decentralisation was that you couldn't be banned though.
