i have read the interesting posts and i agree that a lot deals are going via pm and than they are posted on FT.

well i would do the same if i found a good rate , book it myself pm 10-15 Fters i know and than i would post it.

i would love to see something like CC but with different creteria who gets in.

1.) if you have ever posted a mistaken fare , like the UA deal/ SAS deal or any other great mistaken fare you get acess

2.) if you tend to posten often useful MR mistakes you are in

3.) MODs of FT are allowed to acess

4.) if you contribute to FT you are in.

5.) if you know one of the 1.) -4.) and they vote for you, you get acess.

i dont want a total closed forum for this but a hidden forum MISTAKEN FARES which is open to most of us would be great.
making up a rule that after 2days or the initial poster has received his/her tickets etc. the deal should be moved to the normal MR forum.

the advantage of this forum would be that only people which are voted in will be able to see.

the idea is that there is a thread in which you can make a suggestion who you want to get addet , and others could vote for it, and if you get 5 votes you are in.

i am sure that most of us have built some social network on FT and it wont be so difficult to get acess to the new forum. but it would be difficult to LURKERS to acess as these do not tend to have social networks but they are just monitoring FT to cancel mistaken fares/ rates asap.

for example i met some FTers and i have some friends which i met on FT and i would not hesitate to vote these friends in, and i know they are not working for airlines/hotels etc.

its just an idea , would you like something like this?
