They already are, look at all the self-congratulatory posts by KVS, for example, and I think we're pretty much stuck with it.

I emailed Carol about this, and she mentioned the suggestion of a Travel Tools forum so at least we can sweep all those posts about a tool (informational or otherwise) into one forum (or even a travel tools forum with sub forums for kvs, expert flyer, etc). I think it's a great idea, and a reasonable trade off to the issues many of you have raised and responded to.

Those that are interested in the travel tools, such as KVS, Expert Flyer and any other related or unrelated travel tools can go spend time in that forum and find their answers. Those that are not, won't have to even see the thread titles or read about that stuff in other forums. And the moderators in the other forums can refer those discussions to the appropriate travel tools forum or sub-forums.

I think it's a reasonable tradeoff. Is there a downside? Given that we already allow the topics to infect other forums, I don't see any.

I hope that our TB members will support the creation of a Travel Tools forum and make it happen as soon as possible.
