Using the Tor browser on linux I received the following message when trying to post:

"Not Acceptable!

An appropriate representation of the requested resource could not be found on this server. This error was generated by Mod_Security."

Have you tried turning it off and back on again?

I didn't realize I posted this and pm'd the rabbit. Meant to just pm him.

At any rate, I don't get the message using other browsers.

Quit using funky internet browsers and you won't have a problem.
More online investigation than onsite exploration these days.

It's something to do with mod_security, which is one of the Apache modules on our host. I'll have to look into it more. I'm not even sure if that's something I'm able to monkey with on my end.
