How come I can't access the Test Forum?

by Kim Phoenix

I'm wondering if anyone knows how come I can't access the Test Forum. I do have a War Room membership. I looked in my Control Panel, and don't see an option there to join the Test Forum.

Thanks for your help.

    Because you're not supposed to access the test forum it's for test posting. You're not supposed to see other peoples posts.

      Yes, I understand that. Thomas (admin) told me to use the Test Forum to create a test post before I launch my first WSO and War Room offers. Or is there some way to save my post in test format?

    Ignore this. I just figured it out. I just have to go in there and create a new post. Duh! Sorry about that. I just didn't see that the first time I went in.

    I don't know the criteria for accessing that area.

    Some people cannot reach it, and others can.

    The new criteria was instituted, because certain people were abusing the test forum, using it only as a SEO Link Drop.

    Click on "new thread" to post a new thread. The test forum is for testing purposes only, like your WSO sales page, your post etc. It is not a discussion forum. Others won't be able to see your post.

      It doesn't work that way for everyone... I can see all of the posts there...

        No bad.

        The mods changed something in the test forum a few months ago, but they never defined publicly -- to my knowledge -- how they worked that out.

          twp,

          Actually, it seems that you missed the announcement, as it was defined publicly.

          Here's the thread:

          http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...est-forum.html

          For those newbies, you need to refer to Paul Meyers comments (as he's one of the mods here who explains it):

          Too many people were using that section as a place to sell stuff and post nasty rants, rather than the actual testing it was designed for. So, it was changed. The only posts you can see there now are your own.

          Still works just fine for what it was intended to be used as. Just can't be easily abused any more.


          Paul

          Cheers,

          JMB

      Ha! It worked! And I thought I had to be a war room member for this. Now I can test my happy little heart out!

    hum... I see everything in the test forum from anyone who has posted there. Maybe just people who joined after a certain date can't see others people posts. Or maybe its a war room thing.

      This is why I paste, preview and delete instead of actually posting the thread. At one time I was seeing everything in the test forum and wondered why it was allowed, but guess that's been fixed.
