Sorry,
auh20, but I'm with
slawecki (and, for that matter
SweetWillie) on this one.
If you're going to have the subgroups, then they should be used properly. Otherwise stuff gets doubled up. My understanding of a "travel topic" would be something like SARS, say - a broad topic affecting travel but not to do with points. How do I get from ORD to downtown Chicago is not a "travel topic" - it's a specific question about a location.
I'm glad you're so busy with work that you don't have time to read every topic on FT,
auh20, but just imagine how much time you could save if instead of posting and waiting for replies you could search just one forum and find your answer instantly!

When I want to post a general travel question, I am GOING to post it in Travelbuzz because I only have time to read a few forums and this is one I read.</font>
But surely you can remember to check for the answers to your important questions whichever forum you post them in?

But that's exactly the argument people used a year or so ago before it all got tidied up about MilesBuzz. And after a couple of weeks, everyone who was so busy they only ever looked at MilesBuzz started looking at TravelBuzz too. I think you can see where this is going...
