I don't see how actual fliers - regardless of status - posting about broken seats, dirty planes, poor service or experiences, unsatisfactory responses from BA and BAEC status has anything to do with instigating "much of the negative comment?" @:-)
I agree those who have earned BAEC status by flying other airlines have as much right as those who earn their status by flying BA to post on the forum.
Just a pity they tend to concentrate their posts on telling us how awful the airline is rather than saying how great the reward programme is.
