Why can't I access the 'Gransnet Manifesto' forum ?

I can get to every other forum but not the Politics 2014 one. It tells me I am not allowed access and asks me to inform GN. When I try to contact GN I am expected to download 'Outlook'. What is going on? Is 'big brother' watching me !!??

I have just PMd phoenix to ask her how she managed to get on that forum, tiggypiro as I'm getting the same message as you!

What's going on? confused

Ditto, I apparently have to change my user name. Weird.

Hmm, sorry about this everyone. Could you try again now?

Thank you Lucy - I'm allowed in now! grin

Hello all!

Well, that does seem a bit odd, to say the least!

A while ago GN were looking for volunteers for a survey on Politics, if you were chosen you had to have a different user name to post on it. I did the survey, but was still able to post on other threads using my ordinary user name.

As you have noticed, I've posted on the manifesto thread, but didn't need to do anything like download outlook or change my user name.

So basically I'm as confused as you are! confused

Perhaps someone will come along in a minute and explain.......
