Sponsors - Members comments wanted
I have had the want to contact a few of our sponsors over the last few weeks in search of bits to get me back on the race track..
Unfortunately, most of them have not bothered to respond.
Just wondering if anyone else is having the same problem and / or would like to comment on any of our sponsors (nothing inflamatory please, we don't want a law suit)..
It may be time to cull a few..
Its also dissapointing that very few of them are active on the forum, offering deals, advice and product info..
The list of Sponsors is here.

I think if they are not active on the forum eg offers or product info yes they should be asked about why or why not. If they are not offering discounts to members (if asked) like Stereo mentioned, give them the flick. The best way to sell product is to promote them. On this forum it realy doesn't cost that much (if anything) to get the info across in a post. I would read it here then speak to the sponser that posted it. Fairs fair if these guys go to the effot to post info, prices are reasonable with discount applied and not looked like a @#$*i am sure people on here would suport them.MadKaw wrote:Its also dissapointing that very few of them are active on the forum, offering deals, advice and product info..
The way i look at it if they can't be bothered i will go to someone that can.

i was well looked after b4 at bk with the previous owner, but haven't bought anything lately, however i just think that the responses from us "the users" aren't as active neither,
there're times that ppl here turn an offer topic posted by the sponsor/seller into another joke of theirs and at the end of the post it'd be something totally irrelevant
let's just think if they can't sell a thing on this forum why bother to keep it up? which i do understand, i still think group buy is the best way to communicate with them
my 2 cents worth

Chris at Race Rep has gone out of his way to make sure I get a discount when I go there.
If people are going to offer KSRC sponsorship they really should look after all the members and be active in some way or another.
