I don't know what "screen scraping" is and I don't care
I don't care how many passengers are in Y/C/F
I don't care how many seats are left in S class so I can time my purchases

These things I mention above are what it looks like some (many) on FT are angry about and since FT is no longer a good indicator of what the general public thinks, (which we have learned since 3/3), we can forget complaining & getting these things back.......they don't care & don't listen to us. (if they did we would all be in HKG now & only 4 miles poorer

BUT....I do care about upgrade space. I won't buy a tkt if R (or O) is not available & I certainly would not buy a W or D fare without first knowing I can confirm it. I have never ever played the lottery & I never will. I would bet losing this hurts many more people then those on FT. It's the main reason anyone used EFlyer (which I used way before I joined FT). This is really showing us that they don't want us to even be able to use our upgrades unless there is a few leftover seats. I don't see any more point to Mileage Plus.

The best we can hope for is the phones getting jammed to the point it costs them $$$$. That they understand (but Thrn again maybe they don't. I have not seen any indication that the AA match or less GS customers have made them take notice)
