Just an FYI I am getting a "Forbidden" error when trying to access the site from outside of the country (currently in South Africa); not sure if this is a desired. If I switch on my vpn-like browser extension it works fine though.

Code: Select all

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access / on this server.
Apache/2.2.22 (Ubuntu) Server at vgoemulator.net Port 80

This also seems to prevent me from logging into the emu server (since I'm not using a full on VPN) =(

PM me your IP/Network and I'll take a look. There are restrictions in place due to the horrors of spambots and DDoS attacks from other countries. It's possible your IP is mistakenly in that range. We'll get it cleared up.
