And marshalltown Makita blah blah blah, and I reckon your slightly over egging it or they would still be advertising as they are a business who want to generate as many sales as they can like any other

I like many purchased a s/s mt cos of the reveiws on this forum and they don't sponsor

But like has been said already I think it's due to the fact they felt no need to sponsor anymore. Were just going round in circles. Bottom line is it's dannys decision.

Same as marshalltown but they and Danny have not fallen out as far as I know.
There is one member on here I dislike but choose to ignore him and would never say who (well ok for a small fee maybe.) :RpS_cool:

Yea fu ck it its to hard to finger type to go around in circles,good debate tho well made my gps
 
What's everyone's favourite flavour of crisps. I like prawn cocktail. I won't say which brand
 
Sorry but using marshall towm as an example is a no starter cos i could ask any one in construction what trowel to go for and they would say marshalltown but if i started to talk about reefeena 90% of peep's would not know what i was on about.

I do not, but I shall be contacting them and if they do not start slipping me a few quid then I will throw my dummy out the pram and never mention them again.

I used a tyzack for 31 years until I read about mt on here , I obviously new about them , but wasn't sure about the permashspe or the standard one , I've never heard of microbetis or whatever it's called until I read about it on here

It wold make more sense if they stopped giving you money it hurts a bit more than not giving you money :)

I'd never heard of beastiality, or seen as many pictures of bare breasted women, ball bags and knobs as i have until i came on here either now i'm nearly blind and have hairy palms maybe we should have pornhub as sponsors :RpS_laugh: oh and i'd go and see a doctor about that microgobetis i hear it can be nasty :rolleyes)

But they gave money and supported which is more than mt makita tyzak etc etc have ever done which is why it's a dumb decision. So it's better to have never given than given ? So where do you sit on the question is it better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all ?

They gave money and advertised wouldn't call it supporting first but yes they supported the forum but u think like any sponsor they have their interests at heart. You can't say more than someone else has done because it's not the end of the forum so it wouldn't be a fair assessment
 
Another thing about becoming a sponsor you have to accept good and bad reviews which some companies are not happy about.

So what your saying is once you sponsor you must always sponsor or you will be sent to Coventry
 
I'd never heard of rephina(+ postage!!!!) until I joined the forum so from that angle they have benefitted from mentions on here (about £100 from me anyhow).
From their point of view [ and this can only ever be my guess] they must have taken the business decision that they don't need to pay for advertising when their name is mentioned all the time anyways. (Subliminal - think 'Tesco' on all them free carrier bags) And {again, just my guess} Danny has probably decided to test the ground and see whether, by deleting/hiding their name, it affects their sales sufficiently so they decide to pay for their name being seen again :RpS_thumbup:
