And what's wrong with a blog encouraging people to participate more in the forums??
I agree, it's nice to see some references back to FT!
I know the CC rules seem to come up for debate here and there. I tend to also think that if the airlines were that bent out of shape over it, they'd do something about it already. It's not as if the official airline company reps on FT don't see the forum so it's not a secret.
Brings to mind the FD thread and the coding, etc. Now I know that's slightly different as the airlines have taken action as a result of dumping getting publicity, as I understand. But while it doesn't hurt to obfuscate things, the word puzzles and codes on there aren't unbreakable by any means - some are pretty obvious. If an airline wanted to have an employee spend the time on it, they could figure them out.
