So you posted it again as a screenshot?

Well how else are we going to know what the forbidden message was?

You can’t name change on a thread after you’ve posted once

Which is the bit that was forbidden, I'm assuming you're using the app as it doesn't look like the proper webpage

ErrolTheDragon · 08/10/2026 21:00

Looks to me like some sort of technical glitch error message rather than that what you wrote was ‘forbidden’🤷‍♀️

Hi OP

Can we ask if you retried it, and if not, can you please try and repost? Let us know what happens.

I tried several times. But nope to no avail. Didn’t matter anyway as someone had already commented similar. It was just a the same forbidden error messages id never seen before.

Yes the app on iPhone. Love it much more than website.

Name change fail?

What do you mean?

She has clearly posted a screenshot. How else could she have managed this situation? Found a stone slab and created a graven image?

MissMoneyFairy · 08/10/2026 20:54

Name change fail?

And how could it be a name change fail? Isn’t that when someone posts and doesn’t change their name?

Are you mixing it up with sock puppeting?

"Forbidden" is a technical error message, like a 403 Forbidden website error which means that your webpage request was not allowed by the server for some (technical) reason. It's not to do with you as a user being forbidden, or the content of your message being forbidden.
