I have also been told by a rep that it was going to happen, and later, that it was delayed by a month, it was obviously supposed to happen, but they changed their mind.
Meshugener wanted to contribute to the site, the rep ran through the instructions step by step, which might mean it was there just not yet live. Meshug did not have an account to check it first hand, is it in the rules that one may not post a good deal if it was not tested directly by him? I believe that not, Because that is exactly what Dan did do, because he was rushing to a flight.
Yes meshug, you did make it sound like you did test it yourself, and thats where all went wrong. For that apologise, and lets have forgiveness and start a new page. DD has a great reputation out there.

Some of us asked many times where this info was coming from and the question was avoided. To me I was more interested in the source of the info than the info itself. Why would someone without a TYP account call them up and ask about transferring points to another airline?

I can think of many reason, one, someone interested in applying, and whats to discuss with them all the benefits. But whats the difference why he called? Think he made it up?

Reread HelpMes post. 

If you look through this thread you will see that HelpMe asked many times where this info was coming from.

Had meshug not avoided that question, there wouldn't be any upset people now.

@meshugman: NO ONE is asking you to apologize for believing a phone rep (although imho u do need to ask for forgiveness for that) what is being asked of you is to apologize for the fact that you gave over the info in a way that sounded like YOU figured out yourself (which is WRONG 100% even if done by accident)

Aplogizing isn't only for when u did something wrong on purpose, it is even if it was by accident, you did something (even if u think you were right) that caused a massive issue, that warants an apology PERIOD!!

I never understood why it was so freakin difficult for people to apologize without saying things like "I'm sorry, BUT bla bla bla"

I'm not sure how I come out on this "issue," but one thing I can unequivocally say:

Apologies burdened with excuses are simply excuses masquerading as apologies.

I apologize when I feel sorry, but I can in no way feel wrong when I simply don't feel it. (Assuming you don't want me to just fake and lie that I feel wrong just to be forgiven)
You still never answered why you posted as if you had done it yourself and did not mention one time that a phone rep. told it to you. SHAME ON YOU MESHUGENER! such gayva!

Honestly  Meshugener, if you can't apologize like a mentch about this, and not understand why Dan feels you wronged him, you might end up in marriage therapy one day. Fix up your attitude brother, a little anavah and empathy. When because of you, someone loses their golden reputation, and that person's (Dan) livelihood is dependent on his golden reputation, you should be midakdek on yourself kechut hasaarah, and apologize w/o mentioning why your not really wrong, it's the right thing to do, and it's what stable healthy people do all the time. Sorry for being so harsh.

Your audacity is appalling. If he doesn't apologize he'll "end up in marriage therapy one day?" Who do you think you are? A self-appointed virtual Dr. Phil of the internet?

Your comment above belies absolutely your chosen moniker.

@mesh – How about you just come clean where you originally found this info. Please don’t claim it was a phone rep because it is easy to tell from your posts that came later.

I stand by what I said. I firmly believe that if s/o can't apologize to s/o who he embarrassed publicly, and hurt his reputation which is his livelihood, he's seriously lacking in interpersonal skills, and can't have a stable marriage. I firmly stand by my above comment. Also, Meshugener's whole "forgive me or throw me out" attitude contributed to that assessment. Also, his transalation of Dan's pissed offness as hate contributed to the assessment. Also, his leaving and returning to the forums contributed too. Am I a Dr.? - no, I'm writing my feelings. Meshugener may have a great marriage, who knows. I'm pointing out that his whole approach to this whole situation, is unhealthy, and immature, and he better fix it up, because one can't go thru life with such flaws. P.S. I'm not trying to rip Meshugener, I have nothing against him, I actually like him - as can be shown by the fact that originally I was lobbying for Dan to forgive him, I am giving him harsh rebuke, because I believe when one person points out bluntly to another his flaws, the other person can grow from it. I know I've grown from harsh blunt rebuke.

as I asked already above, whats your business where he knew it from? He obviously knew it from somewhere, and it makes no difference from where. Sounds like you just want to find out some juicy blogs and forums.
@Lamdan, your post above is indeed disgusting. Please remove, we are not looking to personally offend people here. (besides, what do you know about marriage.)
There is some machlokes between two people, no need for you to make things worse.

see my above reply to AJK. I don't think it is "disgusting"  or an "audacity". I edited the original post to say " might end up in therapy".

Wrong thread.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

There is more to this then you will ever know. I could care less about any blogs or forums. What I do care about is if someone gave him this info in confidence and he then violated that same confidence.
