Unfortunately, your content contains terms that we do not allow. Please edit your content to remove the highlighted words below.

And NOTHING is highlighted in the quoted text. I've several time needed to hunt through a reply of several paragraphs without finding what exactly is the offending word or phrase - so I just didn't reply at all

On top of the inane 'bad words' filter that denies the use of some totally "as seen on TV" words.

These are the words

[herbie]

I had used NONE of those words... and that was the 3rd time I could find not one after getting the warning.

And I keep thinking of George Carlin's 7 words you can't say on TV. From 50 years ago!

"Herbie" and "I am Groot",

"Greg" is using AI to identify you.

Current AI is stupid - it can only identify patterns. But your patterns are so standard that even AI understands them.

Be original!

Like George Carlin.

Good Morning,

Is it possible to speed up the validation of my post...? Honestly, I am a bit in a hurry...

It can be slow on the weekends, but post a few more times and you'll be a full member in no time.

Original as in confusingly weird? No thanks.

Greg,

Please read my previous message.

[admined]

I wonder if the moderation is working at all right now. I joined and left me first message a few days ago (in the Federal Politics forum) and it still hasn't been moderated. If moderation is dormant, I guess that would make it impossible for new members to join.

[Greg]

@admined, I apologize for the delay on approving your posts.

I will go ahead and elevate your account to full membership, your posts won't be held in a queue any longer.

Normally, I approve posts once or twice a day - but I must have missed yours this week.

Thanks for your patience!
