Everytime I go to the main FlyerTalk Forum page, I notice the Forum descriptions, ie.:

Delta -
Discussion regarding Delta SkyMiles

American Express -
Discussion regarding American Express Membership Rewards

and have come to the conclusion that these descriptions are highly inaccurate.

If you read the Delta forum (or any airline forum for that matter), you'll likely find few threads which deal with the Skymiles program (or Mileage Plus, OnePass, etc.). Same with the credit card and car rental forums.

Why isn't (or can't) the descriptions read "Discussions about Delta Airlines" or "Discussions about Delta Airlines (featuring the Skymiles program)".

My guess is the board for "the frequent flyer community", the natural inclination is to think it terms of FF awards, and FF programs. However, as I said, I think discussions about just that is a minority topic. You're more apt to have discussions on labor issues, best seats, cheap values, getting upgrades, etc, than FF issues.

Maybe it's time for a change.
