Just to clarify:

Actually that has nothing to do with my comment to you. My comment to you was based on my personal belief that i do not go out of my way to infringe upon any members right to post their personal thoughts or actions unless that thought or action is flaming or harassing another member. I did not feel that your actions were flaming or harassing me and my own thoughts in any manner so why would i ever consider trying to filter or edit them. In this matter, you are enjoying the very same privilege as any other member.

My decision did not hinge on any majority or super-majority, it hinged on what i thought is best overall for FlyerTalk. Just like all the other decisions I've made over time for FlyerTalk. I'm not one to debate myself or suffer from analysis paralysis and well before the book, Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking, practiced this method in the growth of FlyerTalk.
