It depends on the definition of LOUD. Sure there are some pretty intense fights in maybe 2% of the threads. But there is plenty of good information out there in the other 98%.

FlyerTalk is a lively, vibrant board. If I want to find some good discussions and conversations on my status airline, Northwest, I would much rather visit FlyerTalk which has hundreds of threads a month than some other board which has one thread in the past month (could you guess which one I am referring to?). If I want to maximize my points in my favorite hotel, Starwood, again FlyerTalk delivers.

You have been saying for years now that quality is going down, yet participation and quality keeps going up.
