Hopefully some of you are already familiar with TV Tropes (tvtropes.org).
Whenever I go there, it gives me the error "
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/HomePage [or whatever page it is] on this server."
I tried it at a friend's house and it worked fine. Anyone know how I can fix this?

Nope, no idea... Sorry :(

I could reach it fine by searching Google for "our vampires are different."
Or maybe this is a sign that you should find something else to do with your Saturday night? Get some drinks, find some friends, tip a cow, steal a car, take a walk, kill a whore, date-rape a friend, watch a movie, etc.

Do they even ban people there?
Besides, I tried messing around with my IP address already. Didn't work.

You should check that you aren't indeed banned because I just clicked the website you linked us to and I got in without any problems.

Messed with my IP and cleared all cookies. Still nothing.
Besides, even if TV Tropes does ban people, it shouldn't give a 403 error.
EDIT: Does Google's cache of that page look weird to anyone else?

Smash your computer with a baseball bat and show it who's boss.

Try a proxy. God only knows what it would tell you if you were banned.

It works with most proxies I try, but I don't really want to do this for a long time because it's really annoying to navigate that site without using the search bar.
Oh, and someone else is complaining of the same problem there.
EDIT: Thanks anyway, this is still the only way I can get it to work.
