A lot of accusations have been levelled at Threshold's admin over the years. Most created or at the very least embellished by a particular group of trolls who seem to think it is their holy mission to ruin the playerbase in general's fun.
As far as Threshold's payment system goes. There is a compulsory payment to 'Register' your Character. Threshold basically becomes pay-for-perks after that. The difference is that Threshold's perks have minimal, if any, affect on the game itself. And NONE of them are required for advancement.
It is expected that players will continue to support the game with donations over the period of their play, but considering we are an 18+ mud, the amount that is expected is hardly one that is not VOLUNTARILY exceeded by almost every player in the game.
