I am answering you from my r800x running CyanogenMod9. Yeah, it's safe. And yes, you must unlock your bootloader.
How can I unlock the boot loader for free?

With a R800x there isn't a free method

What is the paid version

Here: http://unlock-bootloader.com/
It costs around $24, I've done it, and it's the best $24 I've spent on a phone
Yes, if you need to unlock your phone go to that page... http://unlock-bootloader.com/
Alejandrissimo is guy who do this.... He will do it remotely, using teamviewer... is 100% safe... the best service you could find...
He will tell, you step by step, what to do... as our friend said "The best 24 $ I've spent on a phone"
I recommend you to go and read the testimonials in his site (link above)

I just bought an R800i (and it indeed is i just looked on the back) but when I do the dialer code to check bootloader unlock alllow it says no 0_o. Is there anything I can do or do I have to pay :\. I hope I dont have to pay because I payed a little more for the international version thinking they could all be unlocked -_-.

Not without unlock currently. Which, if you were unlocked i would assume you'd have already rooted. Sad to say there isn't anything for those that didn't get the unlock while it was available on day 1.
Not at the moment unfortunately.

dont buy a phone you wouldnt want to run stock. Most people see that as a difficult idea to grasp, but whatever. if you ABSOLUTELY NEED ROOT TO FUNCTION, this is not the phone for you right now

and I totally understand. But there are like 8 threads about root, and they all have the same answer right now, and theres even a donations thread and someone who you can pay to s-off your phone.
It's getting a little nuts with these new root threads when the answer is - no, you can't root (well, bootloader unlock) right now. I mean it's literally on the front pages of the forum for this device.

Sorry.

Just torrent the FoxFi app full version. You need to install a certificate which means you have to enable the lockscreen on your phone...but whatevs. Works for me.
Idk how i did it....but i use foxfi hotspot without lock screen pattern...which i remember it required me to have 0_o

If you can live without your phone for a few days, send it to Sonic and he'll give you s-off... costs about $30. I did it, worth the money.

Once you have s-off, you can unlock your bootloader and also get root.
Check out the thread, it's well worth the time.

Check the last few pages of the unlock thread in general section. Couple of people mentioned a cheap place that unlocked their T999L.

Good luck with it. Alternatively, if you're taking a trip out of the country, T-Mobile may give you the unlock code. They're not always quick about it though.

Try this tutorial but you may have to change your ROM. Let me know how it goes. If it works up my thanks. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsL7Wqpqzy8
The op is trying to unlock a different device. And I have to be honest, the free unlock we have is much easier to do. Plus its free!
This could help those with the T999L/T999N, but you left out very important information. Such as the website you have to go to, how much does it cost, who does it?

I get what your saying but I was trying to help as best as I could. I just went to google and used the I am feeling lucky button and that is what popped up.

Just a quick piece of advice....when doing anything to these type devices, never use that feeling lucky junk from Google. If you're really lucky you won't add yourself to long list of bricks that were caused by doing this.
