What's going on?
Randy:
What is going in with the "private" chat. We have deduced that every registered FTers received your e-mail. As over 100 people were in the room and it was giving me a head ache, I left and popped backed in. Everything is in disarray, to say the least, and you are no where to be found. I am leaving chat, so if you appear, I hope someone will post a report here on what was discussed (if there can be a discussion in a group of 100+). If you don't appear, what's going on? Goodnight, BB |
Yes, that was a real mess! But, I, too, would appreciate a report if you do appear in the end.
Thanks! |
The chat, which started about 25 minutes late, is a total mess with people questioning the authenticity of "RanFlyer." Are these private chats always so frustrating?
|
Please do NOT send me a report! I don't want to waste anymore time on private jets!!
I trust you will be able to identify the perpetrator and issue appropriate punishment. I could not get anyon to help me subdue the one responsible. |
I guess my request for more notice in advance of these "private" chats is out of the question??? http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

Would have been quite easy for someone else to send out that email and fake being Randy.
Come to think of it....the email wasn't really his 'tone'. Dorian ------------------ Dorian's Star Alliance RTW Price Chart: http://www.informationlab.com/rtw.htm Blondebomber's Star Alliance Comparison Chart: http://members.home.net/deercroft/starall00.html |
If it was NOT Randy who sent the invitation, then there may be a major security problem with his organization. I noticed there were a number of people in the room who do NOT post their email address. If they received an invitation, then someone had their email address. If I recall, I was required to submit an email address when I joined this site (but not required to put it in my profile).
I am really surprised no "official" comments have been made on this issue. |
Dorian:
I thought the same thing about the email. Then I compared the headers and routing info to several emails I've received from randy and others at inside flyer. Everything checked out perfectly. The email came from InsideFlyer. |
Some people invited to the chat could be subscribers to FlyerTalk email who have opted not to post their email address in their profiles. Relax.

From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, September 26, 2000 1:56 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Frequent Flyer Focus Group You are invited to participate in a special online focus group regarding special frequent flyer awards TONIGHT, September 26 at 9 p.m. EST (8 p.m. Central Time, 7 Mountain Time and 6 p.m. Pacific Coast Time). The live focus group will be hosted by me, Randy Petersen, and we will be looking at your interest and responses to a new idea in awards from frequent flyer programs. While I can't tell you the exact type of awards, they are airline in nature. We will be asking your opinions on alternative ways to use your miles for airline transportation to special destinations, the number of miles that are appropriate and how you in general view the idea of flying in a charter private jet for an award vs. a regularly scheduled commercial flight. I'm hoping you can join me tonight and contribute your thoughts and opinions. While it may be important to some of you, I will be giving away bonus frequent flyer miles from the ClickRewards program. The number of miles and to whom hasn't been decided yet, but I'll be thinking of something until the chat starts. Now, if you are interested, it will be held in the "Live Chat" area of FlyerTalk. There has been a special room set up called "UseYourMiles" (it's listed along with the normal chat room - TheBuzz) and to enter this private chat room, use this password - "privatejet". Again, thanks for your time and I look forward to seeing some of you online tonight. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- As a registered member of FlyerTalk, and as a frequent flyer interested in awards and specials, we felt that this announcement would be of interest to you. If you would not like to receive the occasional announcement about FlyerTalk related events, just reply to this email with "UNSUBSCRIBE" in the subject line. Thank you for your interest in our site and services. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
