First time, and it was after I read your post in GD.
I was trying to reply to a post in GD.

and I haven't been able to sign in to Du on Safari all day. ETA - getting that "403 forbidden" message.

Somehow I apparently left a DU session running on Chrome so I have been on there all day.

Be careful - if you log out you may not be able to get back in.

Then I tried replying to a thread in Sports and it worked. So, yeah, intermittent for sure.

EDIT: And this post was obviously successful.

It was disconcerting, but a tap on the browser's back button and moving forward again worked fine.

I did the back button and then clicked my vote again to move forward.

Just wanted to clarify that I did not use the browser forward button.
