I'm getting a 403 error when I try to post on the RPG forums (specifically, the Emergence thread).
EDIT: I got the same 403 message trying to send the content via a PM, so I did multiple rounds of elimination testing. It appears that the end of the paragraph is the issue; when I paste it here, it also 403s. The phrase is:
apostrophe, the word ambassador, a period, another apostrophe, and a quotation mark, all with no spaces between them.
...But if I paste that in with the words apostrophe and quotation mark replaced with those actual characters, it causes a 403 error every time. Even if I type it fresh, or put a space between every single character, it still causes a 403 error.
EDIT 2: With further elimination testing, it appears to be any form of an apostrophe followed by a quotation mark. That's what's causing the error. (And by accident, I discovered the reverse is true; a quotation mark followed by an apostrophe also causes the error. Any combination of those symbols causes the post/PM to fail and a 403 error page to come up.)
