On the other hand, if premium fares are limited to the premium fares forum then for those interested only in mileage runs there are two places to check and be up to date.

Has this aspect been considered yet?
Here I would think that very limited cross posting should be allowed: the usual MR deals thread without discussion and a thread in the new premium fare deals sub forum, where more discussion about the fare would be allowed in its own thread. Only a few fares would get this treatment as few premium fares are MR worthy by the usual cents per mile or whatever criterion. Presumably most of them would be genuine huge mistake fares which seem to be increasingly rare.

We don't want people interested only in premium cabin fares or only pure MRs to feel forced to check both the MR deals forum and the premium fare deals sub forum.
