Thanks John, and I was actually trying to provide more specific detail as to the problem so someone could help me understand and maybe fix it.

Saved permalinks again (have done so many many times), no change at all.

Just for fun I freshly installed yet another copy of bbP and trunk 3147 this time, no change.

Really sorry if I’m seeming like a nuisance, I just don’t understand at all how I can be the only person seeing this, and I was really put off by the closing of my bug as “expected behavior”. I know it’s not expected for users to never be able to create topics, is it?

Any other suggestions on how to troubleshoot this are appreciated. Also to be clear, a couple weeks ago this DID work just fine. Users of all levels were able to create topics and I had no issues with it at all. That’s part of why I’m so upset… everything was going so well and I was absolutely loving it, that to have it just randomly blow up like this in such a reproducible fashion, is a bit maddening.

Thanks for your help as always…
