Am I the only one who thinks that the idea of a single person (or any disparate entitiy) re-writing the rules that another entity (United Airlines) makes for its own instruments a complete farce? And one motivated by self interest to boot?
I would love to see someone get pulled over for speeding... "Ummm yes officer. Well, see I was going faster than the posted limit b/c it makes me feel good. And that feeling combined with me being a good person should TRUMP the law..." 
It's plain and simple. If you want to use the SystemWide Upgrade that United Airlines hands out, play by the rules that govern it.

Leave it to United to "police," then. Have you sent UA an e-mail? They make the "rules" for their SWUs. They should be the ones enforcing those rules.
You postulate that people are breaking the law. What you fail to mention is that it is the law according to United. United, therefore, should be responsible for enforcing that law, not the CC moderator wannabe crowd that pops up every two weeks or so in that forum.
Have you e-mailed Randy yet? Have you e-mailed United yet?
I agree with Mr. Hammer. In fact, the smell of troll is getting stronger as this thread progresses.
