I thought my first post was blocked by spam filter because I had links (to comment on Vic 3 economic simulation). I removed links, still blocked. Thanks for genuine information: we have a post count filter. Now is it for ... quotes? Or message length?

It is only intended to block links; why other posts occasionally get blocked I do not know.

What usually works is posting just a few plain words, then go back and edit that post and paste in what you actually wanted to say (still no links though).

Glad to have helped!!

From repeatedly banging my head against it I believe it is a combination of Links as well as Post Length.
I tried removing links still couldn't post.
Text only was still blocked but could post short 1-2 sentences responses (unsure of exact length filter kicks in)
 
This seems to a be problem I'm facing when trying to create a new thread to start a discussion. Seems like we just have to have fake conversations until the spam filters trust us.
 
This is why:

I have more.screenshots, but you have the idea. Currently, as I speak, the forum is being bombarded by at least two spam accounts talking about degrees from. American universities to China.
