Should We Start Using Code?
It seems anytime someone wants to be nice and offer up a voucher or two, the thread gets moved. Should we come us with some kind of code so no-one apart from AP folks know what we are talking about, and hence we can continue to offer them in this forum?

"Thanks to the member who alerted me that this thread was more appropriately put in Coupon Connection (which is where I am moving it) in order to honor Randy's wishes."
Hmm...makes you think doesn't it.

.....or just leave. The way things were hurt no one as we all knew it was really a Canadian forum - why the harsh approach? Not sure if we will enjoy being moderated - I am certainly no fan.

If we were to tell Randy how this forum is truly "Canadian" and how generous we are with one and other I think he will understand. I'm not sure any of us are set to leave FT and the AC forum because of something like this. FT would be losing alot of great contributors thats for sure.

The other option is of course to just discuss two completely disparate topics in the same thread - perhaps one looking at the latest Bombardier order whilst the other is offering up SWU's....

Im pretty much done with FT. The final blow was that after all the reasoned dicsussion that was going on the mega-ego super-duper moderator still spent all that time finding the threads and moving them all. Must be so rewarding! Just disappointing really and I think it will mark the end of AC cert give aways on FT.
Luckily there are alternative places to do this.....

or how about something like "Question about power ports in J, and I have 2 SWU's to give away!"
(this was just an example)
