It's actually making it harder for readers to navigate our way through this time of merger.

You must spend quite a bit of time in the UA sub-forum, so you can see that virtually every single topic is also being discussed in the UA MP (Consolidated). It's a bit of a joke.

It's now March 4 -- please emulate the DL/NW forum asap, or start AGGRESSIVELY moving newly-created generic threads into the Consolidated forum, where they belong.

To make this more concrete, here's a list (from the first page alone), of active threads still sitting in the PMUA sub-forum that are in no way specific to pre-merger United:

- what's the current order for upgrade priority?
- What are the new codes for award/upgrade inventory
- Problems with United Website?
- Experiences on Day 1 -- the New United.com
- Book/Waitlist NC Now or Wait for Until After 3 March Integration?
- If I dont have 128 encryption and a strong cipher, am I screwed?
- What's the latest on extending "2013" GPUs?
- My MP Choices Program Summary is ZERO
- Can I use 2 accounts to pay for trip?

The PMCO sub-forum is no better (although I'm sympathetic to the group that may feel like they're losing their home):

- Wifi / Power Outlets on UA 737-800?
- 1K Buy-Up to F | You win SMI/J. But only this time.
- CO 737-800 seat back TVs?

I can go on... but as long as people can still post in old threads (pics of UA airplanes, reminiscing about days of CO gone by, etc.), I just don't feel like there's any reason to keep letting new threads be created.
+1

And I won't hold my breath for seamless operations.
