Thanking the sponsors does nothing. Tell them you bought their product because they're sponsoring, now that does something.

I'm thinking of making some sponsor flags, and maybe some cheapo instruments like a drum and trumpet so anyone interested in purchasing them can join the band and parade around at events.

Am I the only one thinking that everytime that a player does something bad, everyone will jump on this thread to find which sponsors to contact and send them "hey, X did something wrong, it's unacceptable blabla".
Imo you made a HUGE mistake making this thread.
Everyone is tired of drama, this thread will make them easier to expand after the starting point (well, its not well-wrote, but I guess you get the point)

It's on the internet ffs. The purpose of the op is good, but it indeed depends on how you will use the info. They didin't discover the electricity to electrocute ppl.. I think you get the point..

Blacksmith Vaftrudner has welded fine kitchen knives for cooks around the world. Just because some stupids use the kitchen knives to murder people instead of cooking, you don't go blame the blacksmith. I have cooked some meals with Vaftrudner's work, and they are delicious.

Nah, I mean, if there's some drama, some people might want to tell the sponsors, but "well, too hard to find them all/those I want, fuck it", not it's gonna be easy as fuck = mail spam for every concerned sponsors :/

This is the bottom line. Every point that can be made leads right towards one thing: return on investment.
Here is how you can make your "thank you" emails mean something: go buy something from them and post a picture. Worried about shit being too expensive? Then buy the cheapest products instead of the most expensive, it doesnt matter as long as your money goes into their pocketm, and esports being the motivation for it.
Here is an easy one: Send a thank you email to Monster energy for sponsoring [whoever] and then post a picture of you holding a $2 can of monster (or redbull or Nos or whoever).
Still cant afford to buy the cheapest shit? Then fucking go get a picture of some random dude on google images and just SAY it's you drinking their product lol. Even that goes further than "thanks for supporting esports" twitter message or some shit lol.

If you truly want to make the sponsors it just comes down to buying their product, they aren't going to invest in sponsoring anything if it doesn't increase their profits. Buy a team related item from razer or steelseries etc.

Uh, ... I'm not going to thank corporations, ... in whom's morality up there with Bernie Maedoff.

Best way to thanks the sponsors is to buy their stuff.
|
Bumping this thread because it can't hurt to give the sponsors another shout out this time of year even if you have done it already once.

A year has gone by, why not thank the sponsors again for their support of our community?
