I'm still trying to find the thread by or contributed to by NJDavid where the original purpose of TheBuzz was laid out. But IIRC, it's pretty much what ChanelCinq summarizes below: the hottest new promotions.

Discussions about lounges and such belong in a general forum (but not OMNI, IMO). Unfortunately, the old General TravelTalk forum is now its own board and is not easily accessed by the community or the moderators.

I'm not sure what the solution is.

The first 3 Miles Buzz topics at this moment are "Air travelers fear loss of status," "Airrivals Lounges - differences in entry requirements compared to departure lounges?," "How much more would/do you spend to fly your favorite mileage earning airline?."

In my book, and this is just me, none of those are buzz topics. When I go to the Buzz I want to read about the hottest new promotion.

Was it ever considered that Omni could be listed first. New people could then post their irrelevant topics in the first forum which would be Omni. And I am not saying the above topics are Omni, they are just not buzz to me.
