Think I found the issue: your credentials were cached. Try redeeming again (it'll complain you've already redeemed) but it should kick the cache

It is working, now I can go and spam there
Thanks!

I have the same issue. I tried redeeming the coupon again but I got "Coupon not valid" and I still have no access to the Beta Testers' Forum. By the way, all of my profile customisation is gone after redeeming the coupon. And my signature is also gone!
[Edit]
Have access now.

Hi Chris, I got the same message. In that message it said I could return the coupons if I do not want to use them but there were no instrictions on how to do so.
Within you lies the power for good - Use it!

finally figured out the problems that I was having...
just out of curiosity but are the gits private?? looks very interesting so I am just curious about what all it can do. if the gits are private then I am sure I have some friends who will want one of my coupons.

Looks like don't have access to Beta forum: "-- The discussion board is restricted and cannot be viewed by the general public --"
Nor, I am able to login into the other side, says authentication failed. FF 27

I could only redeem one of my coupons and I cannot access the Beta forums.
|
|
|
|

I am still clueless on what and how to use my coupon. I am able to login into https://workspaces.codeproject.com[^] but don't see anything in Beta Tester forum ("-- The discussion board is restricted and cannot be viewed by the general public --")
I cleared my cache and did Cntrl+F5 too. I am on FF27.

I got an email about some coupon whatchama , and the email contained a link to the Beta Tester's Forum, along with instructions to read more about the coupons there. When I go to that forum, I get:
Quote: -- The discussion board is restricted and cannot be viewed by the general public --
Then why was I given a link to it?

|
|
|

I guess the Beta Tester Forum needs more testing.

Did you redeem the coupon sent?
See the message above.

Nope. I had assumed I'd be able to read about what the coupon actually was before I redeemed the coupon.

I am pretty sure CP guys have a real good reason for this. Why don't you guys use server push? Why we need to refresh all the time to refresh our notifications?

Hours in the day. We're focusing on other stuff (see the newsletter), but it's definitely on our TODO.

Don't report it here - it's not a bug with the site - report it here instead: http://www.codeproject.com/Forums/1652005/Spam-and-Abuse-Watch.aspx[^]
In this case, it has been reported, and the member is dead.

My 2 cents.
Can we have some kind of email verification when a new account is created before someone can access anything? Also, can we have say, captcha verification for say, first 5 or 10 posts a new user makes?
This could well be annoying but I think can help reducing spam attacks.

Email verification won't do much, if anything: you probably have access to as many different email addresses as I do - unlimited. All it does is make them "block book" new members so they can use them one after another - it won't slow them down much, if at all.
Captcha won't help either as far as I can see - it's human beings doing the posting, judging by the time between posts, so a captcha is only going to add a couple of seconds.
