I too have been getting the "403 FORBIDDEN" message, but I am NOT getting paranoid about it or screaming "Censored!", as it could just be a glitch OR mean that someone has successfully hacked the site. I've written to OWS about it.

P.S. NachoCheese writes: "The "403 Forbidden" issue is a technical glitch that the server administrators are aware of and working to fix. In the mean time, a work around to the problem is explained here: http://www.occupywallst.org/forum/work-around-for-anyone-getting-that-403-forbidden-/#comment-218510 "

I'm still getting it when I try to log in, and the work-around does not work because those characters don't show up.

I logged in by hitting the left arrow on the browser that takes me to the prior screen, which should not allow me to go to a screen where I'm logged in. Go figure.

Sometimes I cannot get to the replies to things I've posted because of the error message of death. Very annoying!

I'm not sure why, but something screwed up the redirect system. What you need to do to get around it is this:

A standard comment permalink url goes like this: occupywallst.org/forum/name-of-thread/#comment-xxxxxx

The redirect link included in the notification system contains some extra things that tell the server that you're going to the comment from a response notification rather than directly, and it's that extra stuff that's causing the problem. Just go into your browser bar and delete the extra stuff until the URL looks like what I wrote above, hit Enter, and you're good.

yes, we all are experiencing same thing. one more reason to leave this forum and head over to the wiki.

I have been active here since the very beginning, and since the very beginning I have been trying to make some core points. These points clearly have not been digested or fully understood by the mob, and so I'm going to try to make a further attempt here again.

  1. Merely protesting in the streets will not bring change. In fact merely protesting in the streets is in fact a means to the end of avoiding the real work of a revolution, which consists of the evolutionary solutions, answers, problem solving process, and new political alignment we create.
  2. This forum is absolutely disorganized. It won't be read by most people and it won't and can't function as a core organizational system.
  3. Back at the very start of this, I petitioned the admin to add multiple sub forums and a wiki. Multiple sub forums were promised but have never arrived. I think that this tells us that the intention actually of this forum is message control and containment. The entire purpose really of this forum has always been to keep us spinning in disorganization. We are hanging out on a forum that expressly exists to actually keep us confused and disorganized.
  4. The real work of a revolution isn't going to happen on forums, it needs to happen in a much more organized fashion using collaborative software.
  5. The assorted other details about how to collaborate, how to work open source direct democracy, how to focus in on science instead of isms, how to become hyper rational about this, are details which are essential and crucial, without which we can predict the movement to fail.
  6. Technically speaking we are not 99 percent, we are one tenth of one percent attempting to represent the 99 percent. Our core mission must be to communicate to and with the 99 percent, and get them to join us. This forum will not accomplish that and neither will any of the other main websites.
  7. You can follow other people out to other wikis and other websites, where they will try to get you to get involved with what they want and their program, but frankly speaking, there is no other website and no other operation out there which understands the complexities involved with meaningful organization. In short, everyones being led to get involved here there and everywhere else, scattering the movement in directions which ultimately do not gain us critical mass, criticial momentum, or critical systemic lucidity.
  8. I have managed to get a wiki put up and have already put on that wiki evolutionary details which make it more organized than anything else. I can't do this alone. There are 10 or so wikis now out there, most of which were created in response to my pleas for a wiki, and several of which are in domains owned and operated by some corporation, (wikia, etc) And which we can thus assume will simply be closed, shut down, or deleted if they become useful to the movement.
  9. Probably at least half of the invites you have to go participate at some other site are people who are scamming everyone to waste time and energy, distort the movement, co opt it, and etc. When you walk off into a closet ask yourself how you know that the closet isn't created by some fed, or by some republican, or by some democrat, in order to sway things in their direction.
  10. The only meaningful strategic option we have for real change in this country is to create a new third party, and take every political office in this country.
  11. Once that is done, we can have an article 5 convention. If we have an article 5 convention before getting rid of the oligachs, that just opens the genie from the bottle for them to abuse that process with their corruption and evil.
  12. As of last night and this morning, you can't even answer responses on this site without geting a 403 error, logging in requries you to back click after a 403 error, and the chat simply doesn't load.

For these reasons, I beg of you to please immediately join me on the wiki. We need to have all of these details and all of these ideas put together in an organized fashion, rather than posted in a long scrawl which will never be read.
