Why not split the site into flyertalk.com for travel-related stuff and spamtalk.com for OMNI stuff?

Post #8760 for me was one in OMNI. That was a weird feeling.

In the name of the wee man. I came across this thread by accident.
I cannot believe it........Why is post count taken so seriously?

For some of the same reasons the airline and hotel "loyalty" program funny money currencies and plastic status levels are taken so seriously?

Shoot, when I started here, I goggled in amazement at anyone with 10k+ posts and wondered how in the world they did it. But in this short time I'm already north of 700, so, wow, earning it honestly might not be too hard. 
btw, has anyone considered how this will affect the CC mods' post padding policing? That's an issue near and dear to my heart because I was masked from CC unjustly for "post padding" when my posts were just regular posting patterns (I even put together a posting frequency table to show the mods). I can only imagine how much worse counting OMNI will make it--who's a CC mod to say that 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 isn't a posting run. This passed motion has made that legitimate behavior for FT post count.
