Pseudonym Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 Dan's got a point... Some brand managers might get upset if "their" athlete enters a competition sponsored by the opposition. On the other hand, some brand managers would encourage their athletes to enter, wearing a tshirt with their brand plastered across it. ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those ads would just be coming through the ad network we're affiliated with. It's not a direct sponsorship - although that particular banner does seem appropriate for us.

maccaz Posted July 3, 2015 Report Share Posted July 3, 2015 Damn i fully expected he would stay and contribute to the forum and he didnt just join to squeeze a few followers for his instagram. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skeletor Posted July 3, 2015 Report Share Posted July 3, 2015 Slightly off topic but did you guys know you can buy followers on IG. I shit you not. Buy 1000 followers for how ever many dollars. Thats how half of them get there followers up so high. One day they have 150, next thing 10000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyreguy Posted July 3, 2015 Report Share Posted July 3, 2015 oh sweet! wonder if you get a discount if buy in bulk lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pseudonym Posted July 3, 2015 Report Share Posted July 3, 2015 Damn i fully expected he would stay and contribute to the forum and he didnt just join to squeeze a few followers for his instagram.That's a bit unfair. If he was here to push his instagram account, he didn't do a very good job of it. A single mention of an IG username, with no link and no photos (not even a profile pic), is hardly going to attract hordes of new followers. I think it's highly unlikely this was his motivation for joining. Much more likely is that Soundsgood was trying to help out the forum, and suggested Dan join up during one of their training sessions. He'd be an awesome member to have around, so don't give him too much grief. Slightly off topic but did you guys know you can buy followers on IG. I shit you not.And Facebook. And Twitter. Here's a guy who bought 90,000 Twitter followers for his dead cat... It's pretty tempting, because high follower numbers make it look like your account is worth following. Essentially, you need high numbers to be competitive and attract new fans. And everyone's doing it, so why not us? It's the social equivalent of steroids. So far, Gymnation is a Facebook natty... so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
