I've been doing some ... research into people's posting patterns lately and the results I'm seeing are absolutely shocking! Unbelievable! I feel it's my responsibility as a member of this community to let it be known that there is a dark conspiracy going on within the hallowed halls of the FlyerTalk bulletin boards.

The Trend: double posts, triple posts, quadruple posts, 11 posts in a row of the same post! Over and over, the same thing, by the same FTer! Threads everywhere are being infected with the multi-post plague. These FTers, they allege it's because of some "system slowdown" in the FT servers or something... sure, blame the computer.

The Truth: The multiple posts are deliberate! People are doing this to inflate their post count and hence their perceived importance to FlyerTalk. Heck, what reasonable community member would not like to contribute more to elevate his or her importance to the community?

People are doing this all over FT. In every forum you can see the conspiracy. Pure evil. Just a few minutes ago I saw a thread where the same poster had some 15 or more repeat postings.

It's a conspiracy! Time for the truth to come out. Anyone have the phone number for the National Enquirer?
