Hey, I was trying to reply to a thread, and got a screen saying I wasn't allowed to access newreply/php or something like that. I was signed in at the time.

To be specific, I'm trying to reply to this (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=127436&page=3) thread, and getting "You don't have permission to access /forums/newreply.php on this server."

See this thread (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=124763) for some discussion of what may be your problem. Short version: there's probably something in the post you're trying to make that's hitting a filter somewhere and getting blocked. The word lynx followed by a space is known to trigger such a filter, though adding some meaningless formatting in the middle of it (quote this post to see an example) will let it go through.

Well, I don't know exactly what the problem was, but I got my post in. Thanks.

Hey, you're right about the "l"-word. What's up with that? TO THE OTHER THREAD!
