Unable to get a 'launch' on TMP

Post by barr7430 » Wed Nov 30, 2011 1:31 pm

I tried submitting a news story to TMP for the official 'launch' of WARFARE MINIATURES and a tie in with advertising in the mag and web promos. Alas, such 'trails' are no longer open to anyone who is not paying for advertising. I have noticed that the 'submit new product info' button is greyed out' for me and for several others who have tried to do so. Not a whinge just a piece of info. Apparently some kind of upgrade is going on but that particular button has definitely been useless for a few months.

I have seen several manufacturers start threads in the relevant forums 'Product Review' board. Victrix especially have done this as the submit new product part wasnt working.

It doesnt get you on the home page, but hopefully does give some increased visibility on the relevant forums.

Cheers

Bill.

Bill has been tinkering with various bits of his forum recently including the news section - just post in the relevant forum & we will all go to PMT & comment so keep it a the top longer than it would stay on news

Sock puppets.... TMP is full of those. There is one rules writer who I know of who has at least 9 different aliases and I believe has been known to start arguments with himself to get 'web time'...... sheesh
