Afterwards, users on a forum on the server began to get the 403 error when navigating around the board. Since the blocking period was 10 seconds, they'd have to wait that long before refreshing the page. Some users report getting the 403 even after waiting 10 seconds. It's happened to me as well. Any ideas why this might be occurring?
