Let me answer you by quoting from the FT FAQ:

"In order to access OMNI a user must be a member for 180 days and have at least a total of 180 posts on FlyerTalk, and in order to access Coupon Connection 90 days membership on FlyerTalk is required, along with 90 posts. The limitation of access to these forums exists to keep the focus of FlyerTalk discussion on Miles and Points."
