The results were in forums ranging from BMI Diamond Club to the Germany section within Travel & Dining, from Star Alliance to Continental OnePass!!
That's because no one can answer with any certainty questions such as "I am arriving from GOJ and travelling to PNR. I have XX minutes for this connection. Is it enough?" The only meaningful answer might be "If your incoming flight is on time, you don't get lost in the labyrinth of T1B, there's no snow on the ground and it's not the second Wednesday of the month.

I tried this Google search and on the first results page 8 were from the UK & Ireland forum, and one each from Virgin Flying Club and American AAdvantage forums!!

Adding the two letters "LH" (which stand for "Lufthansa" rather than "long-haul" as in some other forums) increases the chance substantially. I'll have a word with our friendly mods if we can change the thread title to improve our Google ranking.
