catgate Posted June 12, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2005 Am I missing a point here?I am a bit like you, with this. I am still in the dark as to why my post wouldn't. There has been what Charles Forte described as a "noisey silence" about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 Trying to recreate your problem; typing eache sentence of your attempted post, until I find the 'forbidden' word.What do you regard as a healthy life style?It's a difficult question to answer. I think it is a tripe art hight question. Exercise comes into it. For example, I have always been a firm believer that third class riding is far better than first class walking. Just look at andsomes favourites. They curlThis is as far as I could type the text. Anything I try to type after the last word above leads to the Forbidden message. :ninja: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scuzzman Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 is _curl_ a forbidden word too?Yes, I just tried the above post (without the _) and it did not work.Current list of forbidden terms (cannot be typed without ", _, or some other character to interrrupt parsing):"wget""curl" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark2 Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 The noisy silence is possibly because we don't have an answer, W get is not in the list of banned words I'm able to see, but perhaps as it is used for downloading and Wget is also non-interactive, meaning that it can work in the background, while the user is not logged on.perhaps the board software sees it as a security threat ?Had to code the word to be able to post it :blink: Also tried to type in the post that won't, got as far as They cur before forbidden Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark2 Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 I think Craig will be as perplexed as the rest of us,The list of banned words we have set in the filters are those not considered for use in polite company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 I think we should make a distinction of 'banned' words (banned by and from this forum), and 'reserved' words (by the forum software, or even the web server?).I know nothing about forum software; this is something the admins should look into.On the bright side, I'm sure that Andsome is happy that this forum does not allow any description of feline behaviour :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 ForbiddenYou don't have permission to access /index.php on this server.Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.Apache/1.3.33 Server at forums.neoplanet.co.uk Port 80I wonder if that secondary 404 error would give us some answer to this puzzle...?

scuzzman Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 Come to think of it, "curl" is also a *NIX program used to download content (similar to "wget").See: http://curl.haxx.se/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scuzzman Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 I wonder if that secondary 404 error would give us some answer to this puzzle...?The 404 is a result of Apache being unable to find an appropriate page to handle this error (essentially saying the error is recognized, but there is no page to display for it)...It most likely will not be of much use but is a good thing to keep in the back of your mind nonetheless...

catgate Posted June 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 It certainly looks as though my comments on exercise have exercised a good number of intelligent minds. It also looks as it has opened up a can of worms big enough for us to start an angling club!I am looking forward to the "weigh in". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scuzzman Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 Notice it HAS to be the exact word - any modification on it (appending/deleting of characters, or any variant) is allowed. Also, the word MUST come in the middle of a post to get the 403 - it's fine at the beginning or end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
