FlyerTalk Forums Expert How-Tos and Guides
Last edit by: DELee
This is a directory of ongoing threads found in the CommunityBuzz! forum designed for one-click access to those threads.

ALL ABOUT FLYERTALK MEMBERS
  • Who we all are — Since 1998, this thread, which was at one time at least nine separate threads (the original thread was launched by FlyerTalk member baobab) that have since been combined into this thread, has been an introduction to literally hundreds of FlyerTalk members. To find out more about your fellow FlyerTalk members — as well as to impart some information about yourself — please click on the link to access this thread.
  • What did your FT Handle/Name come from? (Merged Threads) — Now that you know who we all are, can you “handle” finding out the meaning behind our FlyerTalk names? How does one pronounce your handle? is an OMNI forum variation of this thread. If there are any additional versions of these threads scattered about FlyerTalk, please alert me so that I can add them here...
  • Where We All Live — If you have already clicked on the above two links, you know who we all are and the meaning behind our FlyerTalk names. This thread reveals where we all live, as well as which airports are our “base”, or “home”, airports.
  • Where we all are: on a google map — This is a more graphical version of where FlyerTalk members are based. Will you be the first FlyerTalk member in your local area to contribute to this project? As a bonus, see more photographs of your favourite FlyerTalk members here as well!
  • A List of Birthdays — With greater than 80,000 FlyerTalk members, you know that today is someone’s birthday — or that the birthday of that special FlyerTalk member is quickly approaching. Please refer either to this thread, or to the FlyerTalk calendar Member Birthdays for further information and for details.
  • Name Five FTers you would like to meet... — If you have already clicked on the above three links, you know who we all are, the meaning behind our FlyerTalk names, and where we all live. Of all of us, please name the five FlyerTalk members that you are most interested in meeting. Then again, you may be in for a surprise — perhaps your name is already on the list of another FlyerTalk member who really wants to meet you...
  • Ft Athletic partners on the road - a list of people available to play — If you are an athletic type and find yourself traveling alone but you need a partner with whom to work out or play, who better than with another FlyerTalk member?
  • The Centralized FlyerTalk Photo Directory — What do members of FlyerTalk look like? Find out in this thread...
  • A List of FlyerTalk Members You Have Already Met in Person — Oh, so you have already met some FlyerTalk members? How about listing them in this thread — that is, if there are not already too many FlyerTalk members for you to list?
  • Name names: name the flyertalker with whom you have traveled to the most countries — Of those FlyerTalk members with whom you have already met, in which countries — and in how many total countries — did you meet them?
  • In Memoriam: FlyerTalk Members Who Have Departed — This thread respects and honors those FlyerTalk members who have departed from us for the last time and are at that great eternal FlyerTalk member gathering somewhere...

FLYERTALK MEMBER GATHERINGS, MEETINGS AND “DOS”
  • What’s a Flyertalk DO? — Find out here and here, especially if you are ready and willing to meet those five FlyerTalk members whom you would like to meet.
  • Your first "DO"? — Whether you want to recall some classic memories — or some not-so-good memories about which you would rather forget — or you are still gearing up enough courage to attend your first FlyerTalk member gathering, this thread is for you, even if you are only curious as to the experiences and thoughts of other FlyerTalk members.
  • How many FT Get Togethers have you attended? — This question may be self-explanatory, but I personally wonder which FlyerTalk member has attended the most get-togethers of any FlyerTalk member in FlyerTalk history...
  • Where is Freddie Jr. ??? — Click on the thread link to find out who is Freddie Jr. as well as his whereabouts...
  • FlyerTalk Do FAQ: Comments requested — The purpose of this discussion is to define and explain FlyerTalk Dos. It is intended to serve as a guide rather than as a set of rules for FlyerTalk Dos.

THE FLYERTALK ECONOMY AND COMMERCE
  • Hire a Flyertalker — Unfortunately, the original version of this extremely useful thread (which was launched by Comicwoman) is gone forever — a victim of the transition of FlyerTalk from the old Ultimate Bulletin Board (UBB) software to the current vBulletin bulletin board software. However, a new version of this thread was gratefully started by Vaze. Hopefully, every FlyerTalk member will eventually find the job of his or her dreams...
  • The FlyerTalk Business Exchange Forum — If you are a FlyerTalk member who owns a business, you owe it to yourself to visit this thread and post a milepost containing information about your business. If you are a FlyerTalk member looking to patronize the business of another FlyerTalk member, this thread is the ideal place to start your search. After all, who would be better to patronize the businesses of FlyerTalk members than other FlyerTalk members, especially with the growth rate that FlyerTalk is experiencing?
  • Earning Compensation to Attend FlyerTalk Gatherings: An Idea — This thread is meant to assist FlyerTalk members to be able to fund a trip to a FlyerTalk gathering in which they may not be able to otherwise afford. Are there any open temporary jobs at your location that you may list where a FlyerTalk gathering is scheduled?
  • The Continuous “Please Assist a FlyerTalk Member” Get-Together Thread — Do you require assistance getting your house painted or that deck built? How about asking your fellow FlyerTalk members to help? They get miles and points traveling to assist you; you get the job done. Is that a deal?

POSTING ON FLYERTALK
--------------------------------

For those FlyerTalk members who do not already know this: The third item from the left in the dark blue tool bar at the top is Calendars, which can be used to find out the dates of the birthdays of FlyerTalk members as well as the dates of when all of the get-togethers, meets and “do”s are scheduled.

You just did.

Thank you, lin821.

It has been added to the list.

I also added a WikiPost for anyone who wants to edit it and keep it updated.

Thank you, mahasamatman.
