The og post i crafted had html built in to display the imgur album and upon submit the server shot back a "you cant use scripting in a post". The next post attempt brought me to the forbidden page.

Knocked me out while I was using the forum. I can use the site from my phone as long as I'm not connected to our work wifi. Site works fine for me at home.
The Error is: "403 Forbidden error (Forbidden You don't have permission to access / on this server)."
It's a problem with the site's Apache server. It's probably blocking our ip addresses. It will probably need to be resolved by whomever is hosting the forum.
I doubt it's being done intentionally, but this how it could be done in Apache:

Whoever runs the site needs to adjust some settings or Apache config files. I'm not holding my breath.
