The fact that (at least to date) no member agrees with it to the point that he will make a motion in no way indicates that there was refusal to act on it.
In the world of politics there is TALKING about it and there is DOING something about it.
Sorry, no TB member gets credit for acting on an issue when all they have done is talked about it (or claimed that they have talked about it in the secret TB forum).
What is very clear is that by each and every one of the TB members inaction on this issue, each of you is agreeing that non-travel related forums are a-ok on the points and miles forums. Because if you believed differently you would have made a motion by now. That's your call. Be proud of it. Stand up and say it loud: "It's NOT all about travel, points and miles on Flyertalk anymore."
