Authorized Sponsors
Why are there no sponsors listed that have been sponsors of Kawanow for a long time?

The Authorized Sponsors forum is for companies that pay to advertise on the forum itself.

The sponsors that we have some of us worked hard to get and they have been very good to members and 90% of the advertisement they received was on the forum.

Most forums have something similar, Jim. One of the forums I frequent has more sponsor sections than regular sections.

I think Jim is saying if they were with us on the old forum and still give us discounts they should be listed here as well.
If that is not what he means then I will say it. If a company is willing to give members of this forum a discount on their products I think they should be listed somewhere on the forum.

I wasn't saying the vendors who give us discounts shouldn't be recognized. I agree that they should. I was just saying that this isn't abnormal for a forum.

Good point Jim and TC. I know Smith Brothers Kawasaki in Oneonta, AL was one of the ones. They always gave us a discount and were very helpful.

Smith Bros were good to deal with, something happened when the parts girl they had left the business from what I heard.

I don't know anything about former sponsors to be honest...as far as I know, there were no sponsors listed on the old forum.

They were not really official sponsors the way I see it, what they did was sell to VBA members at a discount, and usually supplied us with some swag for our rally's.
We usually had a link to their sight.

I just had Behind Bars Cycle gear added to the vendors list, is this what you guys are calling the sponsor list or are they two different things?
The vendors list is at the bottom of each page of the "web section" of V.B.A. as in .....http://www.vulcanbagger.org/
