Quote Access Denied Our anti-spam program has detected that you are a robot trying to send spam via our forum. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/nov/29/snoopers-charter-bill-becomes-law-extending-uk-state-surveillanceAnything I can do apart from hitting retry enough times that I get a CAPTCHA to fill in that works for a bit?

But that also gave the same screen. I think the site does not like that the requests are comming from automated servers, so you would have to fill in a captcha. Since it is a protection for the site I do not think we should actually disable it. But I completely understand why you would like to stay hidden for other services.
I do not know what to do about it. I think we would have to ask Christian. But maybe Sockratease know a solution to this.

I'll have to download Tor and experiment :educated: Wont have a lot of time for a couple days (weekend) but will see what I can find. I know we use an IP Check in the security stuff for banned spammers, so maybe an encrypted IP is seting it off. A quick look at the settings showed no easy answer to this. I called it odd because I have been using a VPN for years and never encountered this issue. My VPN either sucks or is really good! |
