Cannot post because of spam detection
-
Hi, I tried to create a topic to ask for help but the site prevents me to do so because of spam detection. I’ve just signed in on this site and I have never posted anything, so I don’t understand why I cannot post…
-
This topic creation worked but I still cannot create a topic for my original question. The exact error message is
Post content was flagged as spam by Akismet.com. (Sorry for the double post but posts can only be edited for 3 minutes.)

@Myvh ,
The Akismet filter is sometimes overly aggressive. What I do when I see that warning is I cut out a portion of my post, submit the post, then edit and paste back in and re-submit, and it generally works.

Thank you for your reply! Actually the filter just blocked every URL, even if it was an edit. Not very practical…
-
Why don’t you ask your question without the URLs.
To me it sounds like you are asking how to get around the filter…so that you can then spammify the forum!
