catgate Posted June 10, 2005 Report Share Posted June 10, 2005 Although I can post messages, and reply to some, for the last twelve hours I have been unable to reply to a particular post (to which I replied earlier) in JOKES . All I get is a screen telling me that access in forbidden. What's up doc?edit....punctuation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scuzzman Posted June 10, 2005 Report Share Posted June 10, 2005 This has been known to happen when the word "wget" is in your post - what is the reply you were going to post? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catgate Posted June 10, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2005 Thats a funny word. I can't say that I have ever used it in anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catgate Posted June 10, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2005 what is the reply you were going to post?Well that's even stranger. When I attach it here, I can not preview it nor send it, just as happened when I tried to send it in its rightful section. It must therefore be some thing in the message itself. I shall PM it to you for your inspection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if I can paste this in.Obviously yes, so what are doing wrong?My first "repost" attempt was from a copy I created not out of Notepad but directly off the "Enter your Post" panel on this site. When it did not work I copied it into Notepad because I am lazy and did not fancy typing all again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted June 11, 2005 Report Share Posted June 11, 2005 There are certain words that are reserved and lead to that 401 error. "wget" (without the quotation marks, and not at the end of the post) for instance causes it; see topic 19065.I think it is for security reasons. I also think that the admins should publish the list of reserved words. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
