Default What is, hopefully, a “helpful” comment.

Sinbad: I’m glad to see someone on here who is not an addition to that 66% of this board who, either blindly, or better than 50% of the time, supports anti-customer (US-based) airline behavior. Having said that it’s important to remember the remaining 33% is significantly “outnumbered.” Put another way, we (the 33%) are fighting with one hand tied behind our back. For the foreseeable future the “other side” will ALWAYS get the last word in---whether it’s by hitting the “report” button (for bogus reasons, or otherwise) or just by “mobbing” a “pro-customer” poster.

Given this state of affairs it’s sometimes necessary to take a strategic retreat and ignore the statements from those who no longer have the airport police at their beck and call and just plain wise a** and drunken comments.

In an ideal world there would be, at least, three posters on this board who would be booted-off. But that’s not going to happen. That’s not to say we need to run-up the white “surrender” flag. I think my posts certainly reflect the latter view. However we, on the “pro-customer” side, need to be aware the other side is relentlessly looking for “openings” in which they can turn our own swords against us. Thus our posts should be so guided.

Stand-by for “return fire” from the “other side.”
