Why so many sponsors bumping their threads?

URBAN LEGEND · 09-19-2013, 05:26 PM

Every time I click on new posts I see 100 sponsor thread bumps. What gives?

stealth.pilot · 09-19-2013, 05:49 PM

Must be the economy!

Vic55 · 09-19-2013, 06:11 PM

Thats why they have their own section- so they dont disturb us here.

BUMP!!!!!!!

B-1Pilot · 09-19-2013, 06:29 PM

so is there a way to make it so they dont show when I click new posts?

... they want to sell us more blings from $10,000 a set of BBS FI wheels to $10 gadget accessories.

go easy on the sponsors - they are good guys just trying to make a living.

pochesq · 09-20-2013, 01:03 AM

It's all good. Just like commercials. How else are they going to get your attention when their ads are buried in pages?

Frankly, the sponsor-initiated bumped posts should not be listed with the rest of the new postings. I appreciate their sponsorship and product offerings, but the "spamming" of the new post listings is an aggravation that, IMO, cheapens their image and does not give me (a potential customer) a good impression.

koxal · 09-20-2013, 05:23 AM

for some reason f30 related threads are also being listed here...

GOLFFRR · 09-20-2013, 06:45 AM

Whats going on now is when a sponsor bumps a thread say on F30post the forum sponsor sections seem to be posting in all the other forums, f80post.com, M6post.com, etc.. I believe its a transition phase Jason is working on the move sponsors over from older e90post and M3post to the newer post.

Sponsors depending on level (gold or silver) are limited to the amount of times they are allowed to bump or post so as a aftermarket vendor it would make sense to get your money worth every day and bump up to your limit!

PS
