Sticky for credit card forums?
Should we have a sticky entitled "Which credit card offers the most rewards?"?
Then we can have information which explains the various features of cards.
e.g. SPG Amex = $30 annual fee, 1st year fee waived, 1 SPG pt/$, 1 SPG pt = 1.25 AA, BA miles if exchanged in 20k increments.
Then we could have a bit explaining what the best options are if you want to collect SPG points, TYN points, cash back, UA miles, MR points, etc.
And for MR points and Diners Club (whatever they have), we could point out some of the better value point exchanges they have.

I think this is a good idea for the group to explore, and I'm happy to facilitate. Keep in mind that offers change frequently, so a wiki might be a better idea.

(these are on first 2 pages for me)
multiple transfers
- Amex Starwood
- Amex Membership Rewards
- Diners Club
proprietary
- CITI Thank You Network
other (MUCH lower potential value)
- cashback
pretty sure there are some websites for offers. and IMHO its better to have that kind of thing in bumpable threads.
IMHO the thing to sticky in this forum would be the big TYN threads

I think that a sticky is a good idea. "What's the best card for me" is a common question. We could address some of this in the main post and provide a focal point for those interested in this topic without creating a bunch of similar threads.
