What does OMNI mean?
 

I saw it referenced in another thread. I assume it has something to do with scandalous threads being put somewhere where everyone can feast on them?

The official definition of Omni

OMNI is a vibrant dialogue of perspectives on world events, politics, religion and more. It is fascinating reading and provides quite a bit of humor and entertainment. Respect for other opinions and feelings is required.

I've never seen a good explanation of why it's in all caps, as though it were an acronym. Is it one?

Not quite everyone - perhaps you can't see it. I think you have to have met a minimum post requirement before you get access.

Like some FF programmes, by the time you've "achieved" the required status, you're left wondering what all the fanfare is about.

It's short for omnipotent.

Thank you! You just gave me a valid excuse to increase my post count so that one day I too will be able to access OMNI. :)

Let me answer you by quoting from the FT FAQ:

"In order to access OMNI a user must be a member for 180 days and have at least a total of 180 posts on FlyerTalk, and in order to access Coupon Connection 90 days membership on FlyerTalk is required, along with 90 posts. The limitation of access to these forums exists to keep the focus of FlyerTalk discussion on Miles and Points."

Now that I've hit the magical "90" how do I get to Coupon Connection?

Just go to the 'Community' link, and it should be the 6th group down on that page.

The first rule of OMNI is we don't speak of OMNI.

CC requires 90 days and 90 posts. Wait a few more weeks, then:

The second rule of OMNI is we DON'T speak of OMNI.

Huh? I thought the purpose of OMNI was to discuss things other than miles and points??

If you tell me what it means, will you have to kill me?

no dont even tell me whats in there, i wanna find out myself! ;)

It's like the UA 1K only website...
 

a total disappointment.
