That's what we're going to try for now. I'll elaborate on it all in a post later.

I agree with Mike. While I don't care about a most of the sponsored content (like the preciously mentioned UK loans), but you still do post interesting things. And the planet is about what all the Dal FCS people (past and present) are up to. If one person just seems happens to be up to sponsored posts, who are others to say that this is worse than a three page entry on what someone has been up to in the last month?

There are at least a dozen people I'd "vote off" before you, so if they are staying so should you. ;) Sure, I don't care about most of the products you promote, but I also don't really care about "WOT I DONE THIS WEEK LOL" posts, and there is no shortage of them. You at least throw in a real post every now and then. I say you keep making sponsored posts, I keep mocking sponsored posts, and we all continue getting along just fine. :) I’m with James in saying you should not leave planet.cs.dal.ca.

I read your post. It's very good and I think you're spot on with the bulk of it.
