Why is @bluewaves not banned?

Why should he be?

Unless it can be proven s/he was acting nefariously, we want to be encouraging these types of posts, not condemning them.

Am i the only one who thinks he posted the USair thing because he had an affiliate/referral link and wanted to make money/points? he created the account just to post that and the word referral was in there in the address mumble jumble. I suspected then that it was possibly another blogger...just my reasoning could be wrong
he also was quick to say where's my HT so he knows what's up around here...

No need.  He would change his name anyway unless his info becomes updated and he really has guts.

I think you have a funny way of interpreting things.

We want = we should

We want  ≠ we have been

Whatever.  I think we are basically agreeing.

I have a source inside American Airlines that tipped me off on the $99 fare to LAX, by now we all know it wasn't accurate. So what happened? Allow me to explain. My source got his hands on an email that indicated the above flight deal with the details i posted,  my source is absolutely reliable and he's proven it to me over the years. The 50k US Airways Card offer came from him. I knew all along that it was possible the email was simply a rough draft and never finalized or that AA might decide to pull it last minute, but either way i decided to post it for the benefit of the forum. You should know the power of this forum as my source told me that traffic at aa.com spiked unusually at 2pm Sunday drawing the attention of the higherups at AA.

My sincere apologies though, to all those left disappointed and to those who have to now explain to their wife why they're no longer getting an LA vacation.

Thanks for the explanation. Maybe in the future you can indicate how certain you/your source are/is?

Thanks for explaining. Do drop us similar lines in the future, even if it turns out to be wide of the mark.

So please, next time, let us know this part. Thanks.
You can say what you think when you think what you say.

No problem. If we want confirmed deals, we'll stick to Dan's Deals. Many of us are here on the forums for unconfirmed deals...like cups.
