How 'bout some form of limited exposure, say, one thread every 3 months for nonpaying entities? And the same unlimited threads for the current sponsors.
It is a tough call, that's why the Mods and I decided to put it out to the community.

Also, people should not get the idea that the forums would be a free-for-all. NO WAY! The change is simply to designate a single area as "commercial content safe". All other forum areas are off limits for selling and marketing.

The Mods and I discussed the fact that there may be people who simply can't control themselves. We understand, so we will place a limit on how many threads a seller can start in a period of time. It will be reasonable.
