Posting error/bug

Fri Feb 03, 2017 5:36 am

When trying to post a new topic in the halo 5 form I continually get this error when either previewing a post or trying to actually post it:
Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /site/forum/posting.php on this server.

Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.


I am definitely allowed to view that page, because I used it to post this :P

It seems to be connected to using brackets in the title, like so: "REQ Update(2017)".
This gives no issues: "REQ Update today"
But this gives me that page again: "REQ Update(test)"

P.S. I'm using Windows 10 and Firefox 51.0.1(32 bit)

You may be running into a word filter on the server. Jon or Brick should drop by later to check it out.

Yes, probably a filter issue. Nothing we can really do about it that's worth taking the time to do. Best to just not post titles with braces.

If it's a filter on the server side then it's fine and the solution is just to not use them.
At least now I know.
