Not so much on GWW but it still happens here to..

A company will spend money on a marketing campaign on a forum, this gives them some additional benefits that our other community members dont get for supporting GWW for example, they get to fly a banner in their signature if they so wish because they are an advertiser however i digress, i dont understand those companies who do spend upwards of 2k for ad spots on other forums (GFY for example) but, they have no active presence on those other boards, that, to me, is crazy, i mean, there is only so much you can fit on a banner ad right?

Would it not make sense for a rep from one of these programs spending so much money to be active on the boards too?

Sometimes this industry really does baffle me.
