Must be the cookie monster making tricks with you :-S
Or I happen to have magic powers ?
Using Web-developer toolbar are we? ;)
Nope, I am actually not O_o. Just plain FireFox AFAIK. Very strange.
I just tried posting while logged out in Firefox 2.0.0.3 and it said:Quote:
You do not have permission to post in this forum.
Please use your back button to return to the previous page.
Ah. I use Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.4) Gecko/20070515 Firefox/2.0.0.4
Perhaps that is the problem? Or I dunno. Maybe it is just a fluke of nature and happens for no one else but poor me :\.
Using Firefox 2.0.0.4 here, and have no problems at all.
:( odd. Maybe my computer is crazy and thinks that I am logged in still when I am not O_o.
Yes thats it :)
Good to know. I will give my computer a virtual prozac tonight and hopefully all of this foolishness will be in the past :).
The forum shouldn't care if your computer is crazy or not.. It shouldn't allow you to post no matter what...
Vortex2 can you do this on any other computers or just that 1?
No one has been able to reproduce the problem so I don't know how your doing it. The developer has not idea how you could do that or heard of anyone else doing that lol
Stop blaming Firefox.
Vortex's computer is mad. ^^
I can't do that, it says that I don't have permission...
Vortex - Try going to "My Cookies" in the bottom of the page after logging out. maybe some cookies are still there.
I dunno. AFAIK I didn't do anything special, it just happened O-o. I guess if no one else can reproduce it then it isn't a problem and no one needs to worry about it.
Its just weird and we want to know :)
Anyway I fixed it by clearing out my cookies. Must have been a problem with them (Maybe because of some side effects of using the forums back when they were new? perhaps some of the cookies weren't set to expire like they should or something...)
It doesn't seem to happen anymore but if it happens again then we know there is a problem.
Thanks :).
I'm late, but this is not an uncommon thing and it is not restricted to FireFox. If your client browser acts odd like this (eg: you change things that should change cookies) it is possible that your cookies are corrupt, usually preventing them being updated. A clearing out of cookies and offline content usually solves the problem in both FF and IE.
