PM system is broken

I have the same problem every now and then, and I definitely post more than * thelaptop copies and pastes yaflhdztioxo.

I usually refresh and it gets through.  I've heard that clearing your cookies/cache may help, but could just be some voodoo.

Edit: Aaand it just happened for this post.

Malek Deneith:
This thing keeps on happening. I think I saw it three times in span of last week. Yes, refreshing helps but it'd be nice to see it fixed... do I need to form a mob of people with torches and pitchforks and knock on rimmon's door? (or door of whatever person inherited the role of maintenance-guy if he doesn't have it anymore)

ParaSait:
Ever since I use waterfox, I get that 403 on the entire forum. I think it's some sort of a spam protection thing. The solution is to change your user agent string to something that is whitelisted, such as...


--- Code: ---Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:25.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/25.0
--- End code ---

In the case of firefox you can change that somewhere in about:config.

(dunno if this post will be useful since it only happens occasionally for you... but these are my 2 millibitcoins anyway)

thelaptop:
Eh, we probably need to rouse a mob for this.

Spam situation isn't getting better either.  Two massive spammers got through the net and I spent a nice amount of time removing all their !@#$% posts.

ParaSait:
Is it possible to configure the forum or some plugin to have it show captchas for new untrusted users who have < x posts?
