Here is what I'm am getting when attempting to read the Education Forum. What's up with that??

Well I see a 403 Forbidden error. I contacted John Simkin about it and also told him that it is connected to my IP address as I can log in fine from a friend's house and he said he would forward my message to Andy Walker who deals with these issues. I haven't heard anything in a few days.

Additionally, I occasionally get a 509 bandwidth exceeded error. More often though I am getting the forbidden error as my ip is somehow blocked.

I only get the occasional 'bandwidth limit' error. It's because some.. what do you call them, spammers?..... download heaps of stuff via the website, causing the site to exceed its allowance. There is a thread about it on the website somewhere.
Now, if I were a woo-woo, I'd claim it's all Duane and Jack's fault, trying to prevent people watching them getting a pasting.

Re the IP being blocked, its possible someone from your ISP was blocked. I believe something similar happened on this website. John mailed me saying as far as he was aware you weren't banned, and Andy was looking into it. |

Well if Andy is looking into they haven't bothered to say anything to me about it. I haven't had any contact for days now. I sent a message directly to Andy last night but still have yet to hear anything.
On another note, isn't it cute how Jack is obsessed with my change of location and avatar?

And I see Duane is already playing the victim, saying he'll be banned while actually behaving in a manner which will make his prophesy come true!
Now where have I seen that behaviour before?

Two days later and I'm still getting blocked with no contact from the admin. I'm not sure they care.

You want me to chase it up on the forum?

I found a post about the same problem (apparently I'm not the only one) in the forum information section. I still don't know why they can't have fixed it by now though. For me it has been a week and a half. For others even longer.

It seems my ability to access the forums depends only on what time I might try. Sometimes I get on with no problems and other times I get the same screen as RAF.

Just a quick thought - which ISP are you with? You could try accessing through a proxy server - I had problems accessing betfair through until I set up a proxy. |
