More Snark Please

This forum needs less accomodation and more snark.

I'd gladly tolerate snark, and lots more of it, if our mods would instantly lock every "Airline X Did Y. How will AA respond?" thread that gets started. Why people come to this forum to start threads inviting speculation from the unknowledgable is beyond me...

My overall take is that the moderation of the AA forum tends to strip out the most interesting and most humorous discussion. The most consistently entertaining poster on the DL board would likely have 90% of his content deleted on the AA board.

And why is "AApologist" treated by our mods as akin to an ethnic slur? Any use of "AApologist" even in a general sense and not targeted at any specific poster gets swiftly redacted by our mods.
