Thanks, however, I feel bad doing this.
Hilton has a "bug" in their system, and is it right that we use this loophole?
Next, one day Hilton will wake up and delete all the nice points! If I remember right, somebody posted in another threat that Hilton did it already.
My update-points are not erased - not yet.</font>
Don't feel bad doing this. It is totally legitimate!!

OK, kind of a "how do you feel about it" question...Are you OK with us updating our profile twice every quarter just to get the 1000 points? I, for one, do not wish to abuse this feature, but I have to confess to feelin' a little bit guilty when I do it.

Well, I honestly hadn't thought about. I think we should have enough dynamic information in there to make it worthwhile to check often. And we are happy to give incentives so that you'll be more inclined to keep your account profile up to date, and get used to managing things that way. It makes us more accurate, enables us to serve you better, and is more efficient... so yes, we are okay if you go change your profile for an extra 1,000 points...and in the next few months, you'll see some additional reasons to provide more profile information, making it more worth your while than just the 1,000 points!
