What does this: "Discussion of the latest frequent flyer program buzz..." mean?
To me, it simply means that topics pertinent to the latest news concerning miles and points — without being specific to one airline — should be posted in MilesBuzz!
If the discussion about points and miles is specific to one program only, then it belongs in the forum of that program, such as SkyMiles in the Delta forum or Hilton HHonors in the Hilton forum, for example.
It also means that when posting in MilesBuzz!, one should
beehive properly. For example, it may
bee better to call someone
honey rather than be
stung with an insult like “idiot”, as recently witnessed in an
earlier thread. This usually leads to the
swarming of posts that attack other FlyerTalkers, which is strongly discouraged.
On the
flipside, if the FlyerTalker either posts a topic not pertinent to MilesBuzz! or violates the terms and conditions of FlyerTalk, then the moderators will be
glefft with no other choice but to lock the thread, no matter how much
DLSIZE, moans and complains about it. This even goes for a
Moderator2, as moderators are no exception to the rules.
