I can answer other peoples questions, but cannot submit one of my own!
Perhaps it is the content? Here, I'll submit this one and see if it gets the same error:

Well dang! I can submit new threads! There is something in my last one that is preventing it from being accepted. I tried removing all the < and > from it, removing all the caps and underscores from the title (VEHICLE_HOVER_HEIGHT) and it still gave me that FORBIDDEN error message.

Still couldn't get my serious question posted. Tried storing it as a simple text document in case there were some word processing codes buried in it. Didn't fix it.
Finally I split it into two questions (vehicle hover height) and both of THEM made it. Anybody have an idea why the forum balked at my question? |

Have you offended the Linden Gods somehow? Forgotten the magic word, perhaps?

I'd bet my pet squirrel that you have encountered a bizarre forum software bug, where certain combinations of words and/or punctuation cause the dreaded "Forbidden" message. Here's the Jira for it:

Well, my original post didn't have EITHER the word s----- or f--- in it. HOWEVER, that looks like MySQL syntax to me, as if someone is trying to prevent us from embedding database queries in our forum messages.
AHA! I tried saying u----- table s-- and I got the forbidden message! So it is ANY valid looking MySQL statement! |

I get hit by "update" and "select" in my posts WAY too often _____________________
