How about an area for sponsored forums, this seems to work on a fe other forums quite well. An organiser, vendor, specialist, dealer etc can sponsor a forum, or section, for a price determined by the MT/WT and they have the right to post in that section about offerings etc that are coming up, and to discuss the relative merits of their products and services in a controlled environment? This should provide board specific revenue for web maintenance, allow the sponsor to see how active interest is in their specific business, and keep the relevant discussions away from the non commercial postings. |
