Perhaps you haven’t had 180+ posts long enough?

I see you have quite a few posts in the last couple of days. This might be considered a posting run, which would disqualify you from CC.

Did you just hit 180 posts? If you did, try logging out, clearing your cache and all of that, then logging in again.

No luck, I guess I'll give it a couple days to see if it fixes itself. Thanks!

If you read the wikipost up thread, you'll see the guidelines and possible explanations for folks not granting or losing the privilege to access. Generally speaking, one's posting pattern speaks for oneself. You should contact CC Forum MODs to get a more specific answer.

As lin821 suggested, the Wikipost has useful information, and any issues are best sorted with the Forum Moderators, wharvey and Spiff.

coupon connection access
 

i am an avid reader of this website, since 2009, but i am not someone who writes often.
Can someone help me on how to access the coupon connection area ?

I dont even reach 90 posts.
But maybe i have access as i have had an account here for almost 10 years?
where do i find the coupon connection forum ?
thank you !

Then the 180 posts that are currently required will be an even bigger challenge.

The requirements back then were 90 days and 90 posts. You might have been grandfathered in if you met those requirements, but you did not. You're pretty much out of luck until you post enough to reach 180 posts.

Hi hln,

Upon 180 posts, you will be automatically granted access to the CC forum. We require posting as well as 180 days on the site partially to combat spam (otherwise spammers could make an account and sit and wait) and partially to reward members who have contributed a lot to discussions.

Well, some posts contribute more than others ;)

Take your timeme, post occasionally (travelers sharing experiences and knowledge is what FlyerTalk is all about) and you’ll get there soon enough.

European members from popular destinations like France, Italy or Spain, can be most helpful. FlyerTalk is how I learned about a good paella restaurant in Barcelona, about Ostia Antica and how to visit from Roma or FCO. How to use the Alilaguna boat from VCE to Giudecca Stucky to our hotel, etc.

(Don’t be in a hurry or post meaningless content, however. That is called “post padding” and is both prohibited and generally gets a member locked out of The Coupon Connection (or a reset of the post count, which has a similar effect.)

Hi all, I see this thread was last replied to over a year ago. Does the legandary forum still exist? Still 180/180 as the requirement? I mainly lurk on the FT forums, but would love to eventually get into CC. Thanks.

That is correct
