Over sensitive spam filter causing posts to be reported/removed

Debbie
over 1 year ago

I've noticed on the forum people are becoming concerned about posts being reported, removed, moderated etc.

I've personally experienced a couple of weeks of this and then the whole weekend being unable to post and then a pop up saying that ALL my posts were being moderated.

After the weekend I was told by the mods that this is a technical issue with an 'oversensitive spam filter'.

If you receive these notices, I suggest you reply, as, as far as I know, our posts aren't automatically reinstated without our appeal.

Obviously some posts could be reported for 'abuse' but if you have posted something uncontroversial and it has been removed, it's likely to be this technical error.

    This has happened to me once so far. I started a post, nothing serious, just casual but it was reported or flagged I think The message said and it was to be reviewed but I guess it never was because I never heard any more about it.
