SPONSORED posts now in forum threads. Trashes the forums.

[Joel Owens]

It appears BP is adding sponsored posts into forums. I just saw one appear in the commercial forums for Fundrise. I think this sets a BAD precedent and makes the forums trashy. The forums are where people want to ask and get answers to questions. That is why promotions are on the side. When you interject sponsored ads right in between forum post it is a turn off and goes against the whole purpose of what makes the forums work. 

This is just my opinion and wanted to here others thoughts on this. I think the ads should stay to the sides and out of the interlacing of the main forums.
