“It's advertising. Irregardless of the ploy used to get your attention.

You still get an e-mail notification that you have a PM. It's still SPAM for a vender that is offering the discount.

It could easily be put on the top of the applicable forum page and serve the same purpose without SPA-ing up the PMs. FTE doesn't send everyone a PM when they are announcing a forum with Ford Engineers?

And there isn't any acceptable reason why the "Broadcaster" shouldn't be able to be IGNORED (ie designated SPAM and blocked) if one chooses to do so. “

I have paid for a membership so I'm not subjected to the annoyance of the advertising bombardment here, so I'm a little miffed that the administrators have decided it's ok to send it via PMs now.
No ads here.
