Danbooru

403 when downloading images (I believe I may be on a block list)

Posted under Bugs & Features

I don't think I set the timeout on my scraper correctly so it was sending in too many requests. I've since fixed it but now it's getting 403 errors. I've tried changing user agent, but that didn't help. Could someone check if I've been IP banned?

Just use your Danbooru user name as your UA and it should be fine. Since your name looks kinda random, I guess you might want to use something like “Danbooru user 3VXLhoArXz”, actually.
