    Interesting way to promote your forum... It does seem a bit of an attempt to draw users away from the Parallax forums though.

    Not to mention the fact that it has nothing to do with the classifieds.

    Well, this is a way you can see it.


    However, Parallax and Diigiit forums are like apples and oranges. If you only know apples, you have nothing
    to loose to try oranges. If you don't like oranges, you stay with apples and if you like oranges, you may eat both oranges and apples or completely drop apples.


    Diigiit has a small section for Parallax products. Having Parallax user discuss about Parallax products on its forum will only do one thing; increase the number of Parallax products on Diigiit Robotics online store.


    You are welcome to place a link to Parallax forum on Diigiit Robotics forum if you like or promote libpropeller.org. You only need to place a first post to make sure you are not a spammer.


    Contributors are promoted after a certain number of posts and can be proposed the role of Expert and forum moderator if they have good skills on a specific topic.

    Well, it is amazing what you can find in the classifieds :smile:

    On Diigiit Robotics you can promote any kind of robotic event! I did not found anything similar on this forum. Classified seemed the most appropriate place to do it.

    I find it mildly intriguing that the only Parallax product listed at http://www.us.diigiit.com/brands/brand-parallax is the Ping sensor.

    Diigiit Robotics is not a distributor of Parallax products for the moment and has never been connected to the Parallax community too. Latest distribution agreement signed by Diigiit was with Seeedstudio and Robotis. This is the reason why you can see just a single Parallax product among the 700 products currently in stock.

    Second edition of the competition in 2015 may have an ELEV-8 Quadcopter as first prize.
