Advertising On The Messageboard

[vikingofhaydock]

Dear Messageboard Users
 
In order to preserve the integrity of the Trust in Widnes messageboard, we have decided to limit the number of adverts. No advertising of profit-making ventures is allowed unless otherwise permitted by the Trust in Widnes committee. Companies are always welcome to apply for corporate membership of the Trust to advertise their goods and services.
 
In addition, the advertising of non-profit ventures is now limited to Trust members only. Adverts for a service, goods, event or link not related to the Trust or its interests are liable to be deleted if posted by a user who is not a paying member of the Trust.
 
Please remember that membership fees allow the messageboard to continue, but while it is our intention to keep the messageboard open to anyone, we cannot allow members' enjoyment of their facility to be affected by too many advertisements.
 
We thank you for your co-operation in this.
 
The Trust in Widnes Committee


We trust that you will all understand the need for us to take these steps, and will support us in our efforts to keep this as THE premier rugby league messageboard on the internet.

Whilst I agree with the sentiment of what you say, I am quite surprised by some of the content and hope that you don't mind me questioning this!

As I sat reading this message, I looked at the surrounding screen - there are no adverts. In fact, on the forum pages, I don't ever remember seeing any adverts at all. Hence I find your message a bit odd, it sounds as if we are overrun with them!

Point I am posting is, therefore, simply to ask for some clarification out of interest. Are you referring to other parts of the TIW site, or do you mean particularly the forum pages?

It is clear from you message that this is not a point open for discussion, but would have thought that to be able to offer say one ad slot per page on the boards to advertisers might have contributed some funds both to the site and the Trust. At least the 'hits' of the non-member visitors may have been used to contribute in that way!
