It's been hashed to death here, but here my 2 cents.

TB members with multiple hats should be particularly careful with conflict of interest and that seems to me to be the case here. (In reference to promotion links, not in reference to the Hilton miles post.) It's disappointing to me that FT Admin swayed in the direction it did.

Why is it up to FT to police the corporate inability to prevent/notify ineligibles of their attempt to register for promotions? Almost smacks of a sellout and certainly not in the FT community's interest. (I suppose it's then necessary to define 'FT community')
