    Full message: whoa there, pardner! reddit's awesome and all, but you may have a bit of a problem.

    Make sure your User-Agent is not empty, is something unique and descriptive and try again. if you're supplying an alternate User-Agent string, try changing back to default as that can sometimes result in a block.
