It is what it is--just like a library or most radio stations full of boring volumes/songs but with enough gems to keep you coming back.

There is still useful information. Newcomers are obviously the greatest beneficiaries but I am still learning things here so I stay. I just don't read every post or every thread any more. I have gotten a lot more selective.

The various charts that were spawned by FTers, PremEx's Unofficial Help desk, Mileage Addicts workshop etc. are all still useful sites and judging by my counters get thousands (perhaps tens of 1000s) of hits per year so are providing a lot of people with information.

Various promos post here first and are quickly history but we get them.
