Does anyone here frequent the Rosebutboard.com website? Up until about two weeks ago I did. Now, I get this message Forbidden
You don't have permission to access this resource. Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

No warinng of it shutting down. This forum and it were my favorites, darn it.

I just logged in there without any problems...

Spell it correctly; rosebuttboard.com with two T's. I logged straight in

Maybe it's my location. Texas.

From the US, I get this message:

“Sorry. Due to factors beyond our control, this website is not available from your country.”

"Land of the Free . . ." Hmmmm. Apart from health care and abortion and now apparently, for access for adults to the internet sites they want to view.

Does anyone know if a VPN shows origin country to the server?

With a VPN, your IP address appears as the location on the VPN server rather than your actual location (assuming those are different)

Would like to edit my earlier post but am receiving a 403 error. Just wanted to clarify who was blocking traffic.

Yes, a VPN should allow access.

“Desired edit text...” yields 403 error.

Tried posting a new reply:
Desired new reply = same as desired edit...” yields 403 error.

Tried sending same text as a PM to another user and received a 403 error.

Seemed different than the error we get when the forum dislikes a particular keyword.

Wanted to clarify that a g*vernment is not blocking access. The particular website is blocking the traffic. P*rnhub and others block traffic from Florida.

Aha! Maybe the words g*vernment and P*rnhub were causing the error.
