I have to agree with you now Rudi, or else this circus will never end. I am sure Randy is having a headache reading through all this and he will notice all this non-sense has a common denominator - AC Forum.

One might also say that the common denominator is people who come into the AC forum looking for trouble, as opposed to posting anything related to flying AC or accumulating/using/etc. AP points.

One might also say who knows where are you when WE were roaming the AC forum with incredible ideas such as MHD and many other deals and ideas. Look junior, watch your record such as registration date and the # of your post, I highly suggest you do a search in the Archives of AC/CP forum, you have no idea whom you are talking with. Not offering tips on AC travel. Geez, you are beyond laughably ignorant about the senior AC forum members, are you? Empress and I have been for a long time on par as far as AC knowledge is concerned. Sometimes, I knew things he doesn't and vice-versa. I knew him back to the time when we were both CPers, junior, bet you didn't know that either.

And quickly label anyone with a dissenting opinion as trouble-maker seems to me the thief is crying for robbery himself.

I can't believe this stuff is really going on.

I think that Rudi has a point. If you think that someone has violated the TOS, e-mail Randy privately. Or e-mail the forum moderators... or one of the WebFlyer folks.

But for GOSHSAKES... keep this drivel off the public forums. It is annoying and it doesn't not bode with the spirit of the community.

Is GOSHSAKES a new FlyerTalk member?

If so, let’s welcome this new member to the community.

If not, that would make a great name for a FlyerTalk member...

-----------------

By the way, for what it’s worth, I agree fully with the post just above this one...

I agree. Posting a public request is trolling for debate on a question that is up to Mr. Petersen's private discretion.

Randy it really is time to make a statement concerning all of these timeout requests on your board. IMHO, all of these posters know that the correct procedure is private email to you. In addition, these public timeout requests are many times just personal attacks, not legitimate requests. Most of us are tired of reading this endless stream of threads that take away from the real purpose of the ORP forum.

Perhaps you need to appoint a moderator to edit and lock these timeout request threads. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

Rssrsvp - I can't recall a thread ever being locked in this forum, and the 'Moderator-General' has the key. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif

But I do have a feeling anyone commencing frivolous threads here (and that comment is not directed at Rudi I hasten to add) is noticed by Randy more than on any other Forum. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif

Some with short memories might have forgotten this Forum was closed for quite a while, which was disappointing to see, so your point is well made IMHO, and I do hope some take it.

FewMiles, that last thread,

http://www.flyertalk.com/pasttalk/ft.../000337-3.html

was quite interesting.

Looks like dan at WebFlyer explicitly said that cigarman had incorrectly accused ozstamps of having used another handle. That kind of explains to me why ozstamps seems to be mad at cigarman, especially since cigarman did not apologize in that thread as he had said he would...

This is starting to be better than watching soap operas! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif

(Not that I ever did that anyway http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/redface.gif)

Oh, and on the topic of this thread, I absolutely think the "requests for timeouts" are nothing but personal attacks and whoever publicly requests a timeout should get one himself.
