Would the Marriott rep who initiated this action please identify yourself and explain why you requested a sudden and complete removal of the aforementioned thread?
Also, I would like to see Marriott provide some special FlyerTalk member rates (perhaps access limited to those who have met the same requirements for access to the Coupon Connection) - many of us provide your company with more business as a result of what we have learned about Marriott through this website as well as increased business and leisure travel generated by our participation in FlyerTalk.
