There was a thread on this with lots of responses. Seems many people are getting this. You're not the only one. No explanation from "Muriel".

Does it mean we have been blocked/banned?

The servers at DL do some strange things. I'd give it a little while. Have you tried posting to multiple threads and do you get the same error? It could be a word in your post that DL has banned. Try doing a post in a very old thread by just typing "test", and see if it makes it through.

I doubt you've been banned. Considering the plethora of lunatics currently posting unabated at DL I would see no reason for them to ban you.

There software is messy. Every so often I will get the "YOU DON'T HAVE PERMISSION TO POST" message. And then it will disappear.

Sorry, Erna but yes it means you've been banned. Probably not by the WM but by other people posting at the DL. If you get enough FF from being an OP of a thread or a reply you get banned.

It is not true it's a glitch. It is a ban. Sorry. It might by temporary though.

Actually, error 69 doesn't mean a ban. It could be that Erna had a banned word in her post, she was posting to a thread that Muriel just closed or DL was having issues.

Incorrect. At the DL it means a ban. Maybe a temporary but still a ban for now.

No. It doesn't mean a ban. Like Erna, I had the same error this morning and I wasn't banned for only two minutes.

If someone is getting error #69 consistently at the DL and you're unable to post. It's a ban.

Yes, you're still incorrect.

Posts that were signed "Erna" did appear in several threads after this post was made. The posts seemed like the genuine Erna.

And let's be honest. MPC isn't the most popular person over there so would it surprise anyone he was banned? No. Btw, MPC is fine with me so I'm not a hater.

There are several threads on DL dedicated to error 69. It's not a ban. If you don't believe me, try posting a link in the reply box. Error 69 is literally an error in posting. A ban is "you do not have permission to post at this time". I speak from experience on both.

That was with the old site. The new one is different. Technically and most likely temporary it's a ban.

I have and some of us on those threads clearly stated it was a ban. No amount of cookie clearing or word deducting will help. That's the truth.

No, it' the new site too. I'm not an idiot and I know when I've been banned, and I've been banned. Again. Before telling me I'm wrong, try posting a link in the reply box and tell me what error you get.

One last thing...error code 69 does not change my permissions in the settings tab to not able to post but a ban does. If DL is having problems, then clearing your cookies won't help because the problem is on DL's end.

Being incorrect doesn't make you an idiot. But as I stated earlier the DL USES it as a ban. That is how they do and use it at the DL. Period. End of story.

I will say I have gotten that error 69 message a couple of times in the past but both times it was because of some word or word string I used. I changed my posts and they went through.

Bans are Ip/cookie/membe id based which is the same as preventing people whom haven't built up enough "karma" or preventing non-payjng members from posting during lockdowns. The error code for all three is "you not have permission to post at this time". It just a matter of checking a box on the identifier.

Well, if you look at #2 apparently it was happening enough today that someone started a thread about it. So, I guess it wasn't a ban then. And, please tell me...what error code did you get when you tried to post a link in the reply box?

R25 is apparently a "my way or the highway" guy and is telling us this now so he won't have to tell us later. :)

I wonder if #25 is the poster that popped up yesterday that is highly invested in Erna on DL. A number of similarities in terms of style and tenacity.

Riiiiight. Your troll post at #28 say it all about you. And clearly I hit a nerve with you. And were I'm I trolling in this thread? I just stated how the DL uses error 69. You can't accept that, fine.

Very strange. I wonder (if it indeed is not an outright banning) if it could have something to do with your location outside the USA. Considering others have been having the same problem in the last few days I wonder if DL has had to restrict a certain number of users temporarily. Their servers seem to get overloaded at times. Remember, it's basically a very tiny company.

Just running any scenario I can come up with through my head since I really have no idea.

There's another thread about this that suggests the 69 error is caused by using embargoed DL words and if you just put a space in the spelling, you're OK.

As to Erna, I love him like a crazy old auntie but even I ffed him the other day for a real horrid comment......if indeed it was our Erna. Sometimes it's hard to tell without the DL tool from years ago.

Honey, when most people on DL see your name, they just automatically hit "IGNORE" -- that ruins your posting rights.

Add FF to it and it is a temp banning.

The DL is self moderated. The software does the job. There is no " Muriel. " People ff and ignore others and if someone gets enough of them they are banned hence the 69. People have been complaining that large groups {Trannies and Muslims/apologists} have been misusing the ff just to shut down conversations. I haven't really seen it but I don't usually go to those threads.

I think it's very possible, if not probable, they've automated the whole thing. With no more than 5 employees there's no way even one employee could afford to spend much time monitoring that board. They would have to be spending all their time trying to drum up some customers for their main endeavor which I understand is building web sites for companies.

I agree with that. I think they only time Muriel gets involved is when someone sends a e-mail that they are being libeled on the board.

Oh and when threads get closed it's because enough FF and maybe ignores have happened to set it off and the software shuts the thread down. The OP of the thread is tagged for a ban/#69. "Muriel" has nothing to do with it. It's software.
