The only thread I really miss from the PMUA forum is the "least substantive complaint" thread. That was gold.

I don't feel like I've been here long enough to be the one to start the post-merger version, but perhaps someone else would like to?

So... adding a straight answer to the question:

It seems that the PM discussion boards are there to review things that were exclusively PMUA and PMCO. Note that all threads were started pre-3/3; any new thread topics are automatically part of the consolidated forum.

But many threads are relevant to post-merger UA too. Should we not move them here?

This seems to come up from time to time. Here's a recent version of the discussion:

What is needed is an active board called "UA Limbo" ---
Definition --- A place or state of oblivion to which persons or things are regarded as being relegated when cast aside, forgotten, past, or out of date.

I find myself mistakenly posting on one of the threads when it comes up via a search and I don't realize that it's on one of the old forums. I post my message and then it goes unread and unanswered.

Its been 6 months, don't you think its time to merge the forums?

That way FlyerTalk would be doing its part to end the UA vs CO thing by making it all one forum.

Some insanity about old threads and not mixing them up... they should close the subforums IMO.

How dare you comment on moderation. You could be suspended for that.

And by "that," of course, I mean being correct.
