Your sentence is not very clear. I think Yo is saying with your advertising for Sony angle in posts maybe you should have to be a paying sponsor to post as you do. I would tend to agree (if thats what she meant). You act like a full time marketing machine IMO, where spin is more important than any facts could ever be.

Anyway, can you please clarify your response? I honestly don't get what you are trying to say in that sentence.

Why would it look more professional getting the required funding that way?

Indeed, even if that were the truth why does the site need to look "more professional", it is a forum, a portal and little else. It isn't a sales organisation or a company or anything like that.

To me it speaks volumes that the site is funded by the userbase (and unfortunately Google adverts, but the world is used to them).

So long as the staff run the site and moderate it, I see no reason why they should engage any other kind of promotional activity.

Sorry for being off topic moderators, I just couldn't sit on my hands for that one. I look forward to your reply Mike when you return.
