Let's look at it this way. FT is about Miles and Points. Everything else is just fun or general information.

There is no reason to count anything except M & P. IMHO, there is no reason to have post counts at all, other than a minimum number to be CC or OMNI eligible.

This is, and has always been, an ego issue. Some FTers want, demand, desire (use your own word) high and mighty counts and titles.

None of this means a thing. Let's concentrate on Miles and Points and General Information and let those who want mind candy or time wasters or (use your own words) post away in OMNI. Just don't count the posts.

I would love to see someone move to do away with all counts and titles (can I make such a motion, or does it have to be made by TB member who can stand the heat?)

Please vote to keep no counts in OMNI.

Thank you,

Mike
