Thank you for locking the coin thread

That thread was on a downward spiral. Some of these jealous people are trying to ruin it for the rest of us. Please keep it locked forever.

+1. I have never seen a thread, even in OMNI/PR, get more out of control.

Drink chit for the mod that shut it down.

It was a group decision by all of the mods. It will be reopened when the coins are again available.

Rather than a drink chit, just make sure that you vote in the TalkBoard election. Read the platforms for those who are running, and vote for the people with whom you agree the most.

Agree completely. Many of the people on that thread were attacking anyone that did not completely support ordering hundreds of thousands of dollars a month of coins.

And with that, on-thread discussion of locking threads with come to a close.

We can now return to discussion of miles and points, in a spirit befitting the Flyertalk community.

And anyone wishing to better understand a decision made by MilesBuzz moderators may feel free to contact one of us by PM.

Regards,
