We will soon be introducing a new weekly newsletter. Rather than assume that everyone has already opted-in, we'll send out an initial email asking you all to select whether you wish to receive it or not.

Yes, my intention was never to stop the trade involvement, just to separate the pure promotional posts away from the general discussion. I think the Raddar post (sorry to single you out Ian!) would be best in the Blog area. For product announcements which members do want to see, perhaps we...

They will, have a look at Aldby's avatar to see the 'official' trade member designation which will be applied to all paying advertisers. Those who are not paying, will just have the 'Trade member' and there will be other restrictions around what they can and can't post.
