What cheeses me off

WCMO are all those articles that apparently all describe, without fail or fault, how to get a free upgrade on board a flight.

W also CMO is how those articles got past the editor and why there isn't a separate circle of hell for those lazy and idiotic journos who wrote them.

Another forum. Live Trip Reports. I'm quite keen to see how this cruise pans out as we are doing it in a few months. So, found the perfect Live TR. we have spent the last three weeks hearing about all sorts of irrelevant minutiae but the writer has an entertaining writing style so I've hung in with it. She is cruising to a different country and she is not purchasing a local sim. She has not purchased the ships wifi. Yesterday, she was about to leave her hotel to board the ship. It had free wifi so she was posting. So as she writes to depart the hotel she wrote, 'that's pretty much it for a week as I won't pay for ship wifi and I don't have a local phone'. . The only bit I was really interested in and had just invested reading two weeks of fluff. Ok I know I can read it later but that isn't the point. Don't call it LIVE when you KNOW that isn't what will happen. Of course two and three days delays can happen but they are simply random travel connection and time issues.

Another WCMO. Why can't I bold anything anymore on this forum? When editing. It's all greyed out.

Is LIVE the new click bait?

the other day the media were promoting a Flyer Guru on how to get deals and service and lounge access. Then, in hushed reverent voice - he's a GOLD member of the QFF group.

Ah. Thankyou. But when did that change? Used to be there by default without having to do that. I don't get into that thing called coding so clueless about such stuff so I know I didn't change it.

Ah. Thankyou.

It's been there since Xenforo - it may have been accidently activated with an errant click.
