When Your Post Won't Post...

...because the auto-censor has found what it considers vulgar or profane or rude or whatever. I wish it would at least highlight the offending word or phrase so you can go back and correct it or rephrase.

I hate when I've gone to a lot of trouble to post what I consider and well-researched and thought out response only to hit the post button and it won't budge.

I'd like to know how certain posters get past it with some of the vulgar stuff I've seen X-(

I'd be surprised if there was an answer of the pink kind.

I don't get that censor thing... I went to reply to a person once and was using the exact phrase they did... I could not get the word Vagina to post... yet they could...

wonder if this will post for me today???

maybe some of you are on a watch list? 😉

maybe 😉

but I'd still like a guideline as to what the offensive word or phrase is so that I can correct the error of my ways

hmm.... yes, a little message would be good, even when you have to wait the required time now you don't get told.

Think it had something to do with the "Maintenance" last week Icy. I was having trouble getting my posts to load too.

Yes possibly Gilly.

I ended up copying from IE , opening up chrome, then copying into a new post. It loaded ok then. But what a hassle.
