Sounds like a great idea. I would like to join the group.

Is there going to be secret handshake or code word greeting to recogize one another?

Thanks for your hard work!!!

More mail. Hopefully worthy by reason of having actually attended a few gatherings and therefore being a real person with only one name(!!)...Thanks for doing this!

Great Idea!

You've got mail. Please sign me up

Once again, you've got mail. I can't wait to see how you determine worthiness. Maybe it's some sort of medieval scale with a duck on one side... http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif

There's no substitution for a genuine lack of preparation

You've got mail from me too. Thanks! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

You'll have more mail.

Even more mail.

Goldlust and Empress,

I really appreciate your efforts, but I'm not sure if this is a good idea.

First, we must avoid unwanted company, so the list will be very restricted. Since "paranoid" is the keyword, none of the 2001 registered members (hey, that's me http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/frown.gif ) should be allowed. Also the person must have some FT background, history, "roots". Perhaps Evangelist should be a minimum requirement, or referal from a very small group of FT unanimities, like Rudi (to pick up my prefered FTer).

In any way, you see it will be a select and small group. Who will feed this group with the special prices, loopholes, etc? I don't think this people can go alone much further. See, for example, that the rate which originated this idea was the first and so far only post from brand new FTer TempeFlyer (Thanks TempeFlyer http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif ).
Perhaps FT will be the source? http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/confused.gif

Ok, you may say people should be aware to not posting on FT, but send you the info. But hey, if a non-member send you a profitable tip, isn't he allowed to get into the list? And if it is a trap by some airline/hotel, willing to lose some money now to make friends and catch all future loopholes? Paranoid to the extreme level... http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif

You may also say that airlines/hotels will catch anyway, but the list will make things a bit more difficult. I agree, but in this case a lot of FTers unware of the list will not profit from loopholes. And, IMO, this is against the nature of FT itself. Wish to listen from Randy and other old timers about it.

Note that my opinion doen't take the great merit from this community minded initiative.

I think you are all giving the airlines and hotels way too much credit. If they really cared so much, we would not have to complain so much on these boards, over and over. They would listen and act.

If you make this too restrictive, you will have a group that is not big enough to find and share ideas.

And yet more mail.

And the mail continues to flow.

You've got some mail .. from Paris, France too.
We'll be interested to take advanatage of these opportunities when being in US....
Thanks for that, felis
