Like most things there is always a potential for a negative. In Flyer Talk, I can only think of one thing that truely bothers me. That would be the fact that so many people are too quick to judge and jump to conclusions and speak before they think.

If everyone took a step back and looked at the big picture they might react differently.

There is also one other thing that bothers me, PEOPLE THAT FAIL TO VOTE IN OUR UPCOMING FT ELECTION! Vote, vote for me if you agree with me but most importantly,VOTE!

What bothers me is the placement of that much advertisement that comes up as a pop-up. I disabled the pop-up's on my computer but somehow it still comes up.

Newsletters and Email infos as described above always change over the time and I think that they already try their best to put some interesting things together. However, whats interesting for one might not be that much in the focus of the other. We cant do individual Newsletters except theres the technical possibility to set preferences and a programm sends them out in a "mosaique scheme".

As in daily life, anything that I think bothers me I let sit for a while and upon revisiting the issue, if it still really irks me I may bring it up with the party (-ies involved). That however is pretty rare.

What has bothered me enough about FT to not be able to let it go? Well one thing really and that is only if I go searching for something to wish would change.

I would hope that the TalkBoard discussions could be viewed in the same way the discussions of many national governments can be heard. When I sit in the gallery in the U.S. Senate and listen to the banter, I cannot comment and indeed I must remain particularly unobtrusive. Yet I can listen in if I wish to go get a ticket from my Senator�s office across the street. Transparency goes a long way towards helping the constituency believe in their representatives.

In the TB Topics forum, I often see periods with no comment by the TB. I know full well it is during these periods they are discussing the issues trying to figure out the best course of action. But I do wish that we could all see those discussions. Currently this is not allowed, but I hope that using the processes we have at our disposal and operating in good faith, that we could revisit this issue at some point.

Other than that, when I consider the monetary benefits I get in the form of upgrades, extra miles, some pretty cool friends, and a dinner companion in almost any city I may visit, all of which cost me exactly zero dollars and zero cents to FlyerTalk, I find very little to gripe about.

Sometimes, I think we take things too seriously, and this can be reflected in the tone of conversations between members. I'd like to think we can talk through any issue reasonably with a solid intermediary.

As a moderator, I would continue to address this issue through personal interaction with community members.

Not that much really bothers me about FT. Certainly not on a serious scale otherwise I simply wouldn't be here.

I think squeakr summed it up pretty well:

And I guess I'd add 'people who take it all too seriously' as well.
