Sponsors and cross posting

http://screencast.com/t/l8g1HbAxh9v

If this isn't proof that we need a dedicated spot for sponsors to make special offers to the community, I don't know what is.

It's annoying to click the "new post" function to get a page full of cross posting. If you create dedicated spot, I can subscribe and be notified as I see fit.

I know. A run a free forum with upwards of 1mm unique visitors per month. There are far better, less annoying ways for vendors to bring messages to our attention that cross posting 4 bajillion times.

We have plenty of supporting sponsors that get excellent results without resorting to yelling about their products. When a sponsor cross posts 30X, it's yelling from the roof tops, annoying and hardly the best way to brand its products.

Like a said, create a sponsors forum that I can subscribe to. Then, when special offer is made, I'll get notified. Otherwise you're forcing content on us b/c the entire "new posts" screen is the sponsor cross posts.
