HELP! Can't post in the Microsoft MSFS forum

Featured Replies

Okay, this should not be difficult.  I've been computing, flight simming and accessing forums of all kinds for over 40 years (I'm 70 years old) but...

I can't figure out the Microsoft MSFS forum. 

I can sign into Microsoft's MSFS forum.  I can navigate all of the categories, read all the messages etc.  What I  can no longer do is post a new topic.    If I move my cursor to the NEW TOPIC button I get the GhostBuster's logo (circle with a slash through it).  I'm signed in, I can check all of my personal information.  Everything looks correct.  But I can't even post a new topic in the forum guide on why I can't post a new topic.  Can anyone help with this?

Thanks.

I have moved you out of the MSFS2020 Tips and Tricks forum.  Are you referring to the "Official" MSFS 2020 forum hosted by Microsoft?

Just going to run a Chromebook and not upgrade to a Windows computer. Too many problems with the new Sims! 😱
Trying to keep peace and harmony and the will of Landru on the site seems to be a full time job!

They have a support page on that Forum, you could create a ticket with your problem. They should get back to you.

Well you can never post in  #community:news-and-announcements and #self-service:resolved-bugs or top level categories such as ‘Community’, ‘Flying’ or ‘Aircraft’. You should be posting in the subcategories. 

But assuming that you are just posting a reply in a normal thread and have no access  - can you do other things like click on a post and "like" it or are you just locked out totally ?

CajunRon, didn’t I see you post silly stuff over at MSFS under your other nick CajunRum so their bot cut your posting rights? 🤨

on a serious note, I have no idea how to help you. Indeed better reach out to ms support
