Still Restricted...
 

I may be wrong, but as I understood it after 90 days/90 posts one had full access to the site, i.e. OMNI, coupon connection, etc. I joined in September, have over 90 posts, and yet I am still unable to access any more areas of the site than I could from Day One.

Is the information I was given incorrect, or do I need to do something special to access the rest of the FT sitee?

Thank you!

You are much more likely to receive an answer in the technical forum than here.

That said, you might want to sign off/sign on or clear your cookies and try to access the CC forum then.

I believe OMNI is 180 days, not 90. The rules are firm. Best bet is to email or PM Randy Petersen for requirements.

Actually, there is nothing wrong with your account. You have exactly the access on FlyerTalk that every other member with the same contributions to FlyerTalk has. If you look closely, you will see that The Coupon Connection is nesting quite comfortably between "Itineraries" and "Blogs @ FlyerTalk" in the Community section of the Board. You probably did not notice it because we really don't make a big deal of it. As for OMNI, like other benefits that may come your way, simply enjoy, use and contribute to FlyerTalk in the way it was intended (the topic is miles, points and travel) and someday it may magically appear as well. As it is, you have not reached the contribution requirements of FlyerTalk to have been granted that benefit.

Our good member MapleLeaf has the answer, but really, it's best to let these things come to you as we really don't want anyone's expectations set too high. Enjoy what you have, don't envy what you don't. As for OMNI, there's a history of some members trying so hard to get to that forum that once they are there - they end up forfeiting all their posting privileges because they lost track of what FlyerTalk really is for.

Do enjoy and your membership status and privileges are all OK on this end.

Cheers,
Randy
