Been trying to update my build thread and cannot seem to reply. Keep getting the following message:

Forbidden

I've tried the cookie clearing, left it days, no dice. Same issue.

Solved now, must have been the use of inverted commas, i think the forum must have thought I was trying to hack it or some nonsense. Slight edit and its solved, whatever it was.

yea, the forum sometimes throws wobbles with 'special characters' at one point people could not advertise 'for sale items' since the forum hated '£' characters.

Unfortunately there are quite a few character restrictions now, but bear in mind that this is old software and the site is constantly under attack. We're doing our best to keep it online.

It's one of the oldest forums I know that still exists and is very active! I'm sure some odd bits of character hiccups could be regarded as "charm" .. lol.
