I can live with that!

In response to alanw's suggestion, great idea, as long as you follow through!

In response to keeping out the nickel for an SWU posts, one doesn't have to respond to those posts (and I'm thinking that you may be referring to the posts regarding the need for 140,000 miles for a senior thesis trip to Puerto Rico - it frustrated me too - but those posts often times happen so infrequetntly, that they rarely) and there are threads like this one where the original poster is probably getting a ton of offers, a lot that probably aren't even from FT'ers as he mentioned, but he's getting offers that he can filter out and determine whom to trade with (as you can see, he hasn't traded them as yet). I can see this how this is annoying, but he's got things that he doesn't need, so he's getting offers. But right below, there's another FT'er who has only 100 posts and only registered in October offering a free night SFO because he can't use it - from the tone of his post, I get the impression that if you have something to give him, fine, if not, feel free to use it.

The thing that frustrates me about the Coupon Connection is people posting things for trade & not closing updating their posts stating that the item is gone. I'd say about 85% of my YGM's have either had no response or are sent back from the OP stating that they've already traded the item - well then close or update your post!
