Forum Pages Not Accessible - 403 Error

[Macrura]

Hopefully this can be solved; Almost every page:

403:
https://processwire.com/talk/discover/content-started/
403
https://processwire.com/talk/discover/unread/
403
https://processwire.com/talk/discover/

i guess some type of blocker being overly aggressive, but this is false positive.

update: those pages are now accessible, may have been a temporary issue. Will use this thread as a log for any future blocks.

I believe it has to do with @ryan's spam/bot prevention via WireRequestBlocker. When he announced protection for the forum, and to refresh pages very quickly, I was never able to activate it to see what he meant. More recently though I've been hitting the Forbidden response far more often, and I usually have to wait a bit to attempt a refresh or revisit for things to render as expected.

yepp. unread content link seem to work again right now. was showing errors most times starting some weeks ago. Maybe Ryan relaxed the spam protection settings int the forum recently.
