When an unaffiliated user tries to register for TPAC, instead of being told "you're not eligible to attend TPAC. If you think you are, here's how to sort that out", they get a 403 Forbidden error, specifically:
"Access Denied The server returned a "403 - Forbidden" error. You do not have sufficient privileges to access the page that you requested..."
