I regret to inform you but my post citing the November 10, 2004 Technical Issues thread http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=370358 where post 3 has a member of WebFlyer stating that the OMNI post counting was deliberately enabled again was not a point that anyone previously made.

We have on the record, a member of the WebFlyer staff three months after the change in policy Randy is citing, stating that the reenabling of OMNI post counting was a deliberate act.

This runs contrary to Randy's assertion that it was a four year oversite.

Also, and I'm editing this post so I don't pad my posts.

magiciansampras posts on December 14, 2007 a request to update the OMNI FAQ where he states that one of the errors that is in the FAQ is relating to OMNI post counting.

The following is a link to that thread http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=768116

Randy is the only person to respond to the thread. We can only presume that he read the original question and would have known about OMNI posts counting towards a post total in December of last year.

Why wait another two months and then say it was a recently discovered configuration error?
