    Can't argue with either, that's the definition of shilling. However the definition you initially attributed to Dav makes no reference to the poster keeping their connection with the company/product secret. So which definition do you want to use for the purpose of your spurious argument?

    Really something and nothing, would be better if the touch site had a small indication that it's a paid for post as Timberrrrrrrr suggested. As not everyone knows who Niamh and Dav are, particularly new users. It's not shilling by any stretch of the imagination though.

    I agree, it would be a lot clearer if the fact that it was a sponsored post was visible on the touch site, and maybe this will be clearer when the new site goes live. But I'll mention it in the admin forum for the office to look at anyway.
