Incredibly helpful. I just now disabled that Firewall rule. Please try post again

@teadrinker, I'll see if I can post the script (copied from pastebin) here from my machine as a test (works great, by the way). Nope, fails.

Okay, removing the link to my previous script version -- on this site -- allowed me to post my message. Thanks!

Would it be possible to make an exception to the no-links rule for links to this site? Or are those still problematic?

And I have just -- finally -- succeeded in posting my new item to Bug Reports.

Did somebody tweak something here?
And I am now unable to add a new post to the "Ask for Help" forum.

Vandalizing a website is illegal. It's sad that the community has to be subject to such mentally disturbed behavior. Such actions go way beyond trolling, and arguably anything rational, and are in fact criminal.

After some seconds, Firefox gives me a blank page; Chrome gives me a 500 error.

I don't know what you mean by "pastebin"; would you please explain, or give me a pointer?

I was thinking that the problem in this topic might involve message size, or quoting, or use of BBCode in general, but a bit of testing (messages here which I've deleted) seems to rule them out.

Explain what happens. perhaps it is content related. have you tried pastebin to show me the content?

I'm still having no luck in creating a new topic in Bug Reports, as well as having trouble posting here.

I'm not a prolific poster, but not at all a new one.

OK I relaxed the fire wall rules you should be able to post now

Re: Recent spam, forum problems and some background information

Post by tank » 21 Feb 2019, 08:30

But I need the ip at the time of the post so I can query the firewall rules. In this case the paste pastebin is equally helpful. I will be working today but I will track it down this evening
