2000 post club! [merged threads]

August 6, 2015 ... 12 years later: I re-read this post when a notification popped up and immediately wanted to delete it, but I think it's more deserving of eye rolls

-- Good gawd, how did you all put up with THAT guy??!!
-------------------------------------------------
I think that it's time for me to take a time-out. Here are my reasons:

- Business is going really great and it's difficult finding time to follow discussions in multiple airline, hotel and FT Travel forums

- Coupon Connection has become weird

- My travel is not currently heavy enough for me to offer quality advice.

- OMNI (a favorite non-travel distraction) has become quite nasty and I find myself falling into the fray. I can't quite explain it other than historically OMNI was a place that many of us visited when we became glassy-eyed after reading every Mileage Run, discussing the latest UA/AA promos and trying to figure out how many 50k point promos we could earn at Hilton.

However OMNI is now a gathering place for people that don't travel and/or don't participate in the travel-related forums or FT gatherings. This seems to prevent them from acquiring the community spirit that we all know and love; no different than a Coupon Connection-only poster.

So with that, I give myself a time-out from posting.

Magic111: That 1000th post was more of a joke (although I did take a little break). I'm not leaving FT, just taking a little time off and I thought that I should explain myself (I don't think I'm the only person who is feeling this way).

Like a moth to a frickin' flame, I just can't stay away any longer. My knees buckled and became weak at the SEA-Do invitation from MissyD. And as Rudy has pointed out, it's playoff time - so I have to start bragging about my Sacramento Kings!

The odds of a Kings Playoff Do are pretty darn slim. There is no higer priced commodity in Northern California this time of year. Heck $10 Standing Room Only tickets go for $125-$200 each!
