"Geminiwave, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

1. 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?
2. If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation."

thats what I'm getting any time I try to read news posted on the front page. What gives? This use to happen every once in awhile and then clear up, but this time its been going on for days. Am I the only one experiencing this?

Your account seems fine, nothing set wrong. Is this happening to you in the main news forum or the gaming news forum, or both?

As a test, try a different browser and if that works, go back to your original browser and clear the cache totally as well as cookies, then relog in.

If all this fails, set up a new user account and try it, then report back.

yea it just happened in the normal news section, not the gaming news.

and it stopped this morning. I'm not sure whats up. It happened on IE too so I dunno...I'm wondering if something isn't right with the web browser plugins on my computer.
