Official Subaru vendor forum

Nearly everything is in here to start with.
If it's about your car, or Subaru's in general, put it in "Subaru Chat".

Official Subaru vendor forum

Postby Ric » Tue Jun 16, 2015 10:15 pm

I've had an approach from a marketing company, wishing to set up an "Official Subaru" sub-forum here, for "interacting with the community" and "Delivering Manufacturer information".
They've already done a similar thing on the Pajero forum at http://www2.pajeroclub.com.au/forum/for ... .php?f=111
We're not talking banner ads (which I can't stand), just another sub-forum like the vendor forums here.

They are offering to pay for it, which could finally relieve me from covering all the costs.
Thoughts?
I've already warned them a few trolls may try to disrupt it, but they say it works well on other boards...

Aye.

I would ask if they will take feedback and input to Subaru but it doesn't matter what is claimed - doesn't mean it will happen. They will probably just do propaganda fly-bys but at least it should be constrained to one sub-forum and they will help fund things.

If that example is anything to go by, looks like it'll just be advertising material, really.

But sure, can't hurt.

Some information coming from the horses mouth so to speak will hopefully alleviate speculation and any doubt. So I welcome this as long as they are able to answer our questions directly.
Cheers
