Y'all keep feeding the attention seeker. Seems like Delta Points is having a hard time making it .. so he has resorted to free self-advertising on FT by bombarding his links into every response.

Stop feeding him. Let him disappear.

Makes you wonder if the 40% uptick is coming from a Bangladeshi click farm.

Wooooow... can't help but notice my critique of the turkey sandwich article was removed...

The censorship cartel must really be insulted by my musings...

Tell me, what was SO inane about my post that warranted removal? Hmm?

Boarding Area: Required Reading for Frequent Fliers at the end of a post called Turkey Sandwich Review? Really?

Pathetic

That's odd. I saw the article and elected not to click on it. Waste of time. How come you clicked?

I am sorry I missed your critique, however.

In all fairness, I didn't click.

I assumed the title was accurate, so I saw no need to

Haha don't worry Renes, I definitely wasn't talking to you as I would never waste my time commenting on your "blog."

I think he's spamming us with links to his blog, trying to artificially drive up page views so he can then turn around and say he has lots of page views. Flagged it for moderators as I think such spamming violates the terms of the FT.

Excellent.

Both of the Renes are the bottom feeders of BA. Especially considering he was on thin ice before the switch to revenue based earning. Now it's just kind of sad.

I think there's a good chance I dislike this blog more than any of you, and yet even I recoil at the absolutely palpable unfairness -- the complete, unbounded absurdity -- of somehow citing the murders in Nice as a reason not to review a sandwich.

That's all I have to say.

After all, I'm certainly not a reader of the blog anymore.

Does one Rene write the articles and the other run the books? Or do they alternate?

I've heard that they alternate every other week.
