Why people are seeing this as an auto accept problem and not as batch size, crew scheduling staffing and training, and a company choice to exploit 23M7 issue is beyond me. These are the root of the problem, auto accept is just the coping mechanism pilots have used to avoid the failures and exploitation being done by the company.
you could staff ten schedulers per pilot and that would still be true. you could make batch sizes of one and it would still be true.
now, it is a chicken-or-the-egg situation where large batch sizes caused pilots to start auto-accepting, but if the company quit doing large batches, you wouldn’t pull your auto accept, so we’re stuck with that delay, irrespective of “crew scheduling training and staffing” and batch sizes.

I remember the defense of it but not the shouting beforehand. Most of those were DH's minions who were doing damage control after an unpopular MEC decision.

This is exactly what benefits the company. Sow discord amongst the pilot group to surreptitiously reduce our leverage as we approach section 6.

because the twelve minute timer means that 40 auto accepts delays trip coverage by 8 hours minimum.

it has gotten way worse. There are pilots not even getting calls for white slips. The coverage ladder has been decimated. Everything’s going to be a qs. At least it will bring back seniority.
I’m ready to throw in the towel and get rid of auto accept. If you don’t want phone calls, take your ****ing slip out. The way it is now, my phone never stops ringing for trips i have no chance of getting. Most already covered.
I’m not senior enough for 23.m.7 and can’t get ia’s. At least i get to hear my phone ring a couple times per hour though.

Quick slips will be the new IAs. An orderly, seniority-based system will be restored to all premium awards.
23M7 pay will still be handed out like candy, but that’s our leverage.
