Maybe it's just me but this is the only forum I surf through regularly. Even though people post items that usually belong in TravelBuzz (and occasionally Omni), it's probably because this is a very popular forum... plus, the response time on here is fairly quick. 
I don't mind random posts here as long as they aren't advertisements or plugs.

if we want to make the other forums work, it has to be forced. i liked the gen travel talk , but am trying to promote the new format. why? i don't know. i guess that in the marathon [the long run] it may make sense, particulary from a technical perspective. i'll post something on the tech place.

You cannot force conversation. That's what this bulletin board is, essentially recorded conversations.
The form of the BB has to follow the form of the people who participate. It doesn't work the other way around.

if it has to do with travel, then it usually has something to do with miles, and I like seeing these posts here.
