These comments really annoy me, here's one from the blog:
I used to frequent Flyertalk as a lurker. I rarely post.
As such, FT is populated by (not nice people), pure and simple.
The level of smugness is off the charts.
It has been increasingly difficult to ferret out information and most “members” are either too busy to even condescend to answer or they actually seem angry if a poster dares to post in the wrong forum.
Randy should shut it down and start over.
And one from Facebook:
Sounds like a miserable place, so I'll pass, thanks.
So everything we do that's positive, the Wikis, the Information Desk, the work we do for charities including the Captain Dahl Fund, the seminars etc. don't mean anything to these people?
