Which version of Askbot do you run? Did you make any custom modifications on the code? Did you already try `DEBUG=True` as the message suggests?

My version is 0.7.48. The Problem is that I don't get this message, but some of my users.

I got this too on http://askbot.org, but I didn't try with NoScript disabled.

Askbot is based on django, which features explicit CSRF protection.
 
Please read djangos documentation on that topic and have a look at the askbot source code corresponding to your installed version of askbot.
 
Also try to set DEBUG=True in your settings.py and try to trigger that situation from one of the affected browsers afterwards.
