I've been a member of FT for 13 years & during that time I have actively participated on FT through my posts as well as organizing Dos. I participate in many forums, whether they be miles & points such as Marriott, United, or community oriented such as Community Buzz, Omni, Contests & Sweeps etc.

I maintain the Exec Lounge Open/Closed thread in the Marriott forum, which takes a LOT of time to update/maintain but is worth it.

I also contribute quite a lot in the Contest & Sweeps forum (and yes, FTers do win trips! ):

Contests & Sweepstakes Forum

I organized the Presidents Day London Do for 10 years running, as well as smaller Dos.

I've done trip reports of hotel stays (as well as trip reports of actual travel, such as a trip to New Zealand or attending the British Oscars). Here's a hotel stay trip report.

I believe in giving back to Flyertalk via posting information that might be of assistance to other FTers, organizing Dos, providing trip reports & hotel reviews as well as being welcoming to new FTers, as I've gained so much from FT in terms of information and friendships (both virtual & in real life).

Cheers.
