If the idea is to not have the vendors specials get buried within this forum why don't we just stick the vendor special offer threads. When there over the vendors can edit the post title to say "closed" and we can un- stick them.

Let me first start off by thanking all of you guys for your feedback and replies. That was exactly what I was looking for. :smile: After taking in all of you concerns and ideas, it doesn't seem like the sticky thing is gonna work out. I was just trying to think of a way to keep all of the specials/promotions in one general area so that they would reach more people. I wouldn't have included putting contests on that sticky with them. It was more like the weekly/monthly specials and the such. I don't think that everybody that browses this forum, takes full advantage of the promotions that you guys run, and I wanted to be able to drum up as much business for you as I could by having a page where everybody could see all of the current offers instead of having to trudge through all the other posts. I know most people don't go any further the the first page, and sometimes current deals and such get bumped back due to "thank you" posts and "where's my stuff?" posts.

I do like the icon idea. That could be feasable. I also still like the thought of bringing the contests back here. We would definately let people in the Marketplace know to check here for vendor contests. That's a given. I wouldn't want to do anything to decrease your businesses.  I'll just leave that thought out there in limbo for now though. I've been keeping a close eye on things in the MP, and I want to see how a few things pan out first.

By no means is anything in concrete, or going to change. I've just been thinking alot lately on how to increase traffic and business for you guys and the community as well. I welcome any and all ideas or concerns any of you may have, whether on this topic or anything else for that matter. I'm always open to ideas, and am here to help you with any problems I can. Feel free to contact me anytime you wish. For now, looks like things aill stay the way they are. :smile:

Thanks for the concern Bruiser.  :thumbup:

Btw, I'm the person who lobbied to remove the contests from this forum. It didn't work then and I doubt it would be a good thing now.

That's my final words about that.

Again, thanks for being a good mod.

Sticky would be fine with us, too many customers miss the specials, if the post slips past the first page.

Having read this thread I think I can point out a few things because I have seen this work in other forums (for computer parts).

1. A sticky post will not be ignored if it is constantly updated and tagged with something like UPDATED (DATE). This was (and is) extremely successful in the other forum that I talk about.

2. Two ways of doing it, either the big list of specials posted by vendor with links to threads announcing specials OR each vendor has their own post on that sticky thread.

Forget the first way (not because its a bad idea, its just really less tricky to pull off "fairly"), concerns are about the second way in which there is precedence by order. I believe that if it is a specials thread then the thread will be read completely anyway since a comparison is what the customer is looking for. Nobody is going to read the specials for the first vendor and then reject the rest. As long as each vendor is limited to one small post with links to the announcement threads (which is always edited, not reposted or the thread will gain size) I see no reason why this can't work out also.

It has to be either one post on the thread with a list (accessable to vendors or through mods to the post) or an ordered thread of one post per vendor. Update with editing.
