About this thread
The idea of this thread is to need the "search" function a little bit less ;)
Actually, it is meant to provide a quick overview of current and recent MP promotions and links to the threads that discuss them. In other words, please continue to start threads about MP promotions and hold the discussions in those threads as we have so far. If at all possible, when starting a thread about a promotion, please include the full T&Cs. A good example of a promotion OP is this. Some Promotion FAQs:
Please help keep this list complete and current by reporting promotions and their threads. Thank you. :) |

Is this intended to replace the following thread (which is pointed to by the FAQ at the top of this forum)?
All Current Promo [sic] This other thread has been added to, but not maintained in a rational way -- the first post hasn't been edited since May 23; rather, posts have been added on, so that it isn't so easy to find things any more. If a "current promo" thread is going to be offered, someone has to undertake the (frequent) maintenance and updating of it, which means editing the first few posts in it every couple of days or so. Also, maybe an "archive" of expired promos needs to be maintained in one of the posts, for easy reference; this would require monitoring promo expiration dates. |

Also, maybe an "archive" of expired promos needs to be maintained in one of the posts, for easy reference; this would require monitoring promo expiration dates. I am in the process of compiling links to recently expired promos that still have some relevance (such as 1for2 and Fly3/Fly6) to post in this "archive." I welcome and thank any additions and suggestions. |
How about making this thread a "sticky"?

If this is a sticky, why wouldn't a large number of the others qualify? There is also the "derivative" aspect of it: putting it in the FAQs gives you a link to a thread that has links to promotion threads... That would probably negate a lot of the usefulness this thread can serve. At any rate, it is something I put to the moderators for their consideration and decision, and whatever they decide to do will be fine by me. Thanks for taking this on! |

One other thought, have you thought about contacting anc-ord772 or mods about shutting down the other thread? |
Update!
Added MP Referral promotions.
