Now that the furor has died down a bit...

A couple of months ago I was planning to take a sick friend to TPA and I was looking for strategies to get upgraded.

Within several hours, I had several people respond via FT or e-mail offering their miles.

I used my own mileage (but appreciated their offer). My point is that I was merely asking for IDEAS and many people OFFERED. Certainly the fact that I've been on this board for a little over a year helped my credibility.

FT is a home for generous souls. But since the very large influx of users since the Pudding Guy story broke, it is easy to grow a little suspicious.

Maybe this thread got a little too heated at times, but BOTH sides in this argument have their point.
