If it is truly to be only for points & miles, well, let's either get rid off all those unrelated and pesky off-topic forums, such as community and the regional areas, as well as Omni. Then counting the posts won't matter.

I have 2 gripes with this whole thing... dealing with a problem by removing a feature instead of dealing with those who cause the problem

AND

Treating Omni like a second class citizen, when it's just as valuable as any other non-miles & points forums. In some cases, it's more valuable
