Birdmail - You're out of here

I'm very dissapointed that the folks at Birdmail have chosen to populate FlyerTalk with the spam of this Birdmail thing. Since it is an obvious commercial endorsement and seems to have been posted in no less than 25 program threads, we are deleting all the threads started on commerical behalf of Birdmail. If someone uses the service and wants to contribute news of how it works and for what purpose, then we welcome that information, but this is not a board for spamming purposes. Birdmail - Your wings have just been clipped.

I think it's safe to say I speak for all of us here when I say thank you.

I am very pleased by Randy's action. The Birdmail thing (and other pyramid-scheme, envelope-stuffing type deals) is not in the spirit of Flyertalk. Thank you for deleting this material.

Excuse me Randy, I'm not sure if you just want to remove the one in buzz or all, there are still some in the Airline forums by jhpluma. Thanks.
