I'm glad this forum exists because I was planning to create my own.

This website and the iPhone app are both terrible. The idea of this site is excellent of course, but its implementation needs to be better.

Website:

--The search feature is horrible. Easier to do a Google search external to the website.
--The text editing in html is really useless unless you have experience with HTML.
--Private messages where you choose to send an email (rather than PM) to someone disappears. I.e. if you email someone via FT, you have no record of it after you hit the send button.
--Forums and threads get so large, that you can't find what you're looking for easily. For example, if I want to see the latest Marriott promotions, I have to search the entire Marriott promotions thread (since the first post is from years ago). The problem is, the last post isn't always the information you need...usually it's someone commenting or complaining about something...not actually the information you need.

App:
--Connection errors ALL the time even when there's no connection problem.
--Can't see what forum a message is in when in the "newest" tab. i.e. if someone posts "maximizing miles from DEN-SEA", I have no idea if the message was posted on the DL forum, the UA forum, the F9 forum, etc.
--Clicking on links that open the Safari browser are often broken. You have to "quote" a reply, highlight the original link, and copy/paste it into a browser.
--You can't compose a new thread to a specific forum. For example, if I click the new button and type my message, it won't let me select a sub thread (e.g Delta), and it also won't let me select major threads (e.g. Airline programs). The only ones it allows in "Miles & Points" is MilesBuzz, Hotel Deals, Mileage Run Deals, and SPAM. Can't post to Airline programs, Global airline alliances, Hotel programs, etc etc.
