Hi all,

(again) I seem to be experiencing another issue, this time regarding receiving the following error (or something not to dissimilar, such as when trying to edit a post - error 403)

I can post if i create a post and type in it a single letter (not tried anything else, excluding what I actually want to post, which doesn't work...) I have been searching around and all I can seem to find is either it is related to plugins, well i have none, and / or Mod_Security, I believe it is disabled in the ".htaccess" file, which is also show below, I did notice an additional file related to ".htaccess" called, ".htaccess-nginx" (I have renamed them both to ".etc")

If it makes any difference I do have a ".htaccess" file in my root "public_html" as it was found to resolve an error, from a previous thread.

The URL is: Boston Rowing Club - Forums (www.resources.bostonrowingclub.x10.bz)

Regards.

Mod_Security, I believe it is disabled in the ".htaccess" file
only Admins can adjust [ mod_security ] for free-hosting accounts - we (users) can not use a [ .htaccess ] file to disable or adjust it

Hi,

By default we have a rule in place that stops people posting 4 or more URLs, to help prevent against spam bots. I disabled that rule for your account; please try again.

Thank you,
