Lets casually ask for member 'thoughts' on something tried and tested and discussed at length in secret by others, a minor detail
not disclosed initially, until it was kind of blurted out by accident, and then the wallpapering began.
Isn't that how Zimbabwe 'works'?

We agree...
Huh?
Tried? Nope. Not even seen by anyone on FlyerTalk until the brief internal demo last week.
Tested? The internal demo was not and could not be a test of how our members would use the feature.
Discussed at length in secret? No again. I decided from the start to have the discussion right here in TalkBoard Topics. There have been subjects which were discussed primarily in the private TalkBoard forum, but not this one.
I don't understand see how you are reaching your conclusions.
"Inside information," a sudden implementation with a "please only use it in private forums," and it not being used only in private forums, etc. How was the internal demo not a test of how it would be used?
