Anyone else having issues connecting with Opera?

BAsically what the title says. I noticed the other day my Opera browser got a 403 forbidden when I tired to connect to this site. This is weird because I have never had a problem before. Anyhow I was just curious if anyone else was havig the same issue of if anyone had any idea as to why. Also if anyone else is having the issue at least this way you know you aren't the only one. Firefox works perfectly though which is nice.

The forum servers are blacklisting by User-agent strings apparently... Which is STUPID (doesn't provide any security, extremely prone for error, easily bypassed)

changing the user-agent string to "Identify as Firefox" works.
