Then I guess we are the founding forefathers. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif

Seriously, FT has grown to a good size. I think only those who register should have access. Access would still be free but not completely open. Other websites make you register. We should know who is visiting FT plus it would also help us overall with statistics- ie. we could say FT has 6 million UA mileage plus members or 240000 Hyatt Gold Passport members.

Hi,

I am a new member and really need some help on getting some extra points so that I can take my kids on vacation. Any help is greatly appreciated. Please include me on your list.

Thanks,

Why is it that quite a lot of folks who want on "the list" are either very new to FT and/or have a hotmail style email/no email?

I'm sure that if I were the webmaster of an airline site I would get my a** on the list before it gets kicked due to some pricing type...

How would you know about all "special prices"?

You may have to ask the members of this board to e-mail you all and every "great deals"

You have mail.

Oh no, I think you misunderstood. I am not the one sending info about this: everyone on the list can send alerts to everyone else on the list.

Although I didn't think it possible, this idea just got even more ridiculous.

Not to ruin the fun of the "lurker conspiracy theory", but wouldn't make more sense to believe that the reason the special deals are gone shortly after they've been posted is that so many people take advantage that they run out of seats, rooms, coupons, etc?

Good luck to the offshoot group, but it sounds like much more trouble than its worth.

Actually what I find very funny is when people make negativ comments without any arguments. Any idiot can write, "I think XXXX sucks and is foolish." And so you do, it seems.

No argument necessary. The thing speaks for itself. Just one idiot's opinion.
