Are you printing them yourself? If you put it on a silk lower gram it'd feel a bit nicer? Self cover yes?

[dazzul]

Yes i am getting them printed.

lower gram on silk is a possibility.
Cheers for the idea ill look into it

Being hard at work, yes 'onest guv' I've only just picked up the PM and found the topic...

I believe the idea is a strong one, however I can sympathise with Andy's view... which brings me onto how I would be prepared to be contribute...

Andy is right that there could be a conflict of interest if us 'Traders' were required to distribute the material, where's the benefit to me as a trader advertising other company products, especially if they are within the same sector of the market.

Therefore for this to work, it needs to be a "TMF Endorsed" publication, ie distributed solely by TMF ( so available as a pickup booklet at shows and similar events ) which primarily is there to promote TMF and has advertisements from those traders contributing to the costs. This then provides an inferred recommendation from the forum for those traders...

This may be a pill which the Admins/Moderators of this forum are not prepared to swallow and would need their sanction before it proceeds.

No worries Dazzul, i just like to pretend I know what i'm talking about

Edit: The above sounds like i'm having a dig! not intended

I agree with guessworks to be honest, and was just about to ask if any of the TMF team have been contacted about this?

I think guessworks as the valid point in his post above and I cant really add anymore to that.

TMF are still limited in what we can do to authorize a trader and monitor traders on the forum, so can TMF really endorse a document which is promoting said traders/companies?

[Jordie]

Try contacting Verns Playmate. I am sure this will be discussed between the team!

[shorty]

Verns_Playmate or marksmini might be the best ones to PM about this, minimadjonesy aswell actually
and just seen jordie having a peek at this thread, so maybe he has some input as he deals with the traders info on here

[dazzul]

ok made a post in the feedback and questions section also sent a PM to verns playmate and marks mini

Thanks for the ups Jordie, Guess works and Shorty.

I assumed this had already been done ?

but I cant help but feel its the sort of thing that would go into welcome packs for TMF+ members as well ?

[dazzul]

Nope, the first post in this thread i had the idea about 2 mins before,

Also TMF+ welcome packs have stopped

[minimadjonesy]

Dazzul,

The admin Staff are discussing this now. Will let you know in a few days once we have come to a joint decision
