My phone says this site is Forbidden

I accessed via my iPad

Anyone else having issues

I’m using it via the IPad. I’ve had that word Forbidden appear on the odd occasion over the last twelve months but then it’s corrected itself some hours later. I couldn’t get on the site earlier this afternoon for several hours so assumed something was wrong at the providers end.

Problems accessing today too ... have had "Forbidden" message too ... usually on pictures threads

Not been forbidden but opening & refreshing pages has been very slow

All ok for me on the ipod

I have had this for years here in Japan. I have to use a VPN on my phone and at home, but it works okay on my office pc. Obviously not a geographical thing....

Can anything be done? I would appreciate it.

Maybe we'll all have to start proving our age to affirm we're old enough!!! (Could be an issue for some judging by some of the squabbles which break out!!)

Oh no it won't.

Working fine for me on my fridge

Major issues yesterday I'm afraid with attacks coming in. I had no access for a few hours.

I know you are, you said you are, but what am I?
