    Just came across some Noteworthy threads hidden away in Sponsored Forums.

    Would they not be better served in a more populated part of Boards?

    How about Current Affairs, sponsored by Noteworthy? Or a sub forum off CA?

    Hi Gloomtastic, they are posted in Sponsored Threads but then 'advertised' in relevant forums, for example if you go to the Long term illness forum there is a sponsored post running there for a projects looking into parking charges at hospitals.

    With the sponsored posts we're looking for anyone with an interest or insight into a subject to get in touch with Noteworthy rather than looking to start a discussion among users about it. If that was the main objective then you'd be right in saying they should be in the main forums. It's something we may try in the future but I'm not sure users would be too happy to have sponsored content in among their regular threads.

    A sub-forum is also a good idea by the way, another thing we might try in the future, thanks! We've had sponsored sub-forums in the past with varying degrees of success :) Thanks for the feedback.
