it is intermittent, but a big pain in the ass.
some folks around here like me and some do not...
i don't want to be banned, but if you want it to come to pass, just do it.
1170 NET rep points don't lie.
if you want me to change my screename, just ask....but i'm tired of worrying about being banned, i like this forum, but i'm not going to waste my time if higher ups want me gone.
but if you ban me, as you did with chain, you might as well call this forum...stormfront version 5.0

I think it's just something that happens once in awhile, so don't worry. :)

I saw it a lot a week or two ago, and haven't hardly seen it this week. It's even happened when I haven't signed in, so I don't think it's a personal thing. I've noticed it happens more if I use the back button to get out of a thread.

Noone wants to ban you birdman ...I for one enjoy your posts.

I get that error message myself occasionally when logging on, has something to do with vB and mysql (server database) I believe.

Maybe Dietrich or varg can tell us more if they catch this thread, I dont know alot about the forum software.

Cheers

You are not banned. I just gave you rep and can't do that to a banned person. BTW you should have over 1170 now. :)

I`m glad to see you again birdman, you are one of the best posters in this forum!!!

Your statements are always very Interesting and I enjoy to read them.

;)

thank you so much ....i must admit that recent "real identity" rules have me worried.

T.Garret = the type of guy that i would like to get drunk with, then kick some muddrace-ass

That "Forbidden Acces" thing has been going on for several months. It's been reported before and there are threads about it. Aimee once claimed to have fixed the problem, but it popped back up a couple of days later. Just hit the refresh button and learn to live with the inconvenience, I guess.

It happens to me often enough to.

It does not discourage me, but it might a scare a newbie away.

Think if you sent somebody sends a link to someone, vnnforum.com and they get a forbidden message they may get scared away.

I hope this gets fixed or figured out.

OK, altered 403.shtml to give a friendlier message.
