wow... i'm not an official member on roster of the wash and wax forum but i hang out here alot... so, what exactly will the sponsor do in this forum if we get one? i mean will they just hang around and advertise their products here or will they be able to moderate posts and such?
Seriously though, they would just be here as a resource. They would probably advertise their products to some degree as well. Some of that advertising I imagine would be in the form of give-aways. The exact relationship would have to be negotiated with whoever is interested in being a sponsor though.
Check out Bimmerforums.com to see what Autogeek does over there.

thx mikeyc for the vote of confidence!
have just been handed down our sponsorship rules...
https://www.s2ki.com/Home/index.php?option=...=1&limitstart=0
prices are outdated (would be higher now), but most of the other info is fairly current.

Also, I think according to the sponsor rules Chip would be out. I think his business is home based, but I may be wrong on that.

i have no objections to free stuff. nor do i have objections for our forum having extra funds. and i think it'd be good to have ppl that are experts about products around. the only downfall i see is that their opinions are biased, but probably as far as product reviews for the stuff they carry, it'll be pretty good. i guess i'm voting a yes.

Nope, I wasnt joking. MANY of us, if not most use Autogeek for detailing supplies, so if they can give us 10% off or something, s2ki is WAY cheaper than any other advertising, and you hit THOUSANDS of people. They can definetely profit from it. Im still trying to get a sponsor for the electronics section.

the downside that killed this last time was that with a sponsor it is harder to post up specials from non-sponsors, and to get advice from non-sponsors-
but maybe we can work around this this time...
