permissions of certain posts

[crip720]

I have an RSS feed of ubuntu forums posts. Every so often if I click on a interesting sounding post I will receive this notice: Posts seem to regular questions. None of the four reasons seem to apply. Just wondering. Sorry for formatting.vBulletin Message

crip720, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of the following reasons:

1. If you have made fewer than 10 posts, access to your personal settings is restricted. See here for more details.
2. Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
3. If you are trying to post to a Resolution Centre thread that another user has started, the permissions for the Resolution Centre do not permit this. Anyone may start a Resolution Centre thread, but only the thread starter and forum staff are able to post to it.
4. If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

Are you logged into the forum when you click on a RSS link and see this message?

Please also post the URL of a sample link that the RSS feed gives you when you see this message and, if possible, the URL of the same page that you are able to see successfully if you simply surf the forum. We need to compare the proper forum URL and whatever RSS is giving you.

I am/was logged in when I click the link. https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread....1&goto=newpost. Most links work well if logged in or not. Only happens maybe once every two weeks. More curious than bother. Think some RSS links might be bad, using protopage on opera for RSS feeder.

Hi crip720,

That post was spam and removed from public viewing.

Okay. Did look interesting, better than some that don't bother disguising themselves.
