I'm clicking here:
Which, on any other of the groups would open up a list of the forums like the one which was posted earlier, but I get the "No Access" banner.
I'm logged in. The banner I posted includes my username and the option to log out.
The above is when I log in from a computer. When I log in from a mobile device the list of forum groups doesn't include the "Airline Specific Private Forums" link at all.
Note that I don't want to apply to join any of the Private forums, but I do have a professional interest in web sites which don't work in the way their administrators intend.
We normally blame the user and I'm prepared to take the blame here. For example I don't understand why all the forums in that group are private but only two of them have links to apply for access? So the OP and I have possibly missed something obvious.
