I think they should count...and I have probably posted only once in Omni since I've joined FT.

FT is a community....members should be applauded for being part of it no matter which forum they choose to frequent. Yes it's a travel website, however to partake in Omni you still needed to visit other forums too in the first instance to gain access.

And why does everyone get so uppity about how many posts someone has?
A lot of us here have no knowledge of how things used to be...why keep harping on it? Move forward...some great people on Talkboard from what I've been reading and many of them want change.
