I type. There is no email. The system seems to think there is. Why? Hard to ask a serious question when it keeps getting blocked.

Thanks

Amazing! It worked and there was a civil response. Thank you. Apologies for the lack of detail, but experience with an earlier post had led me to expect my post would come out as "email removed" or someone would assume I was trying to post about gold sales and give a less than helpful response.

1. I have a problem signing in to WoW. <email removed> <email removed> <email removed>

Selling/buying gold is against the rules of WoW, and this website. Any links to websites will be automatically removed from your post....

No email, no link, nothing. Block appears random.

Stop trying to post an email. (or stop making posts with email removed, one or the other)

If you truly need help from an admin, try posting over here:

http://wow.allakhazam.com/forum.html?forum=3

They're more likely to see it there and hence more likely to help you.

The poor Trolls e-peen is being Bot cut by the filter or he thinks we're pro Gold Sellers. I can't figure out which but the extremes are annoying.

Let's assume for now that there is the possibility of some bug with the website's filter(a bug on the internet...who would have thought? Smiley: rolleyes) and that this guy legitimately needs help.

If I'm wrong there'll always be time to make fun of him later.

Don't use an "at" (@) sign in your post.

I suppose it is common to assume that a system functions as it should, and perhaps that someone posting from Beijing might be trying to sell something. In my case, neither is correct.

When I enter text, it seems to default to <email removed> regardless of what I've entered.

1. I do not mention or link to any form of email.
2. I do not mention or link to any website.
3. None of those things are in my sig. I don't use one, don't quote, and don't use an avatar (so nothing is uploaded).
4. I have run a virus scan and come up clean.

Aside from the fact that I'm an American academic teaching at a Chinese university -- which means I live in, and post from China, I am not aware of anything that might be causing this problem. I could just blow it off and go back to reading the forum without posting, but I've come across a problem logging into the game that I was really hoping I could get help with. Instead, I'm finding it impossible to post, and people seem to assume I must be unable to read/follow the TOS and list rules. This seems to be a source of amusement or pride for some of the regulars, but it is a less than pleasant introduction to posting on this forum -- one that I've been following for several months now.

Assuming, for sake of argument, that I might really be trying to use the forum to ask a real question -- is there a setting that I am missing that might be causing my posts to get this blasted "email removed" when I am not entering email or links?

Thanks,

Rhodekylle


Anyhow I directed him to Azurac {sp?}

I stand corrected. Anyway, I made a query here. Hopefully we'll get some response.

How come nobody can ever spell my name? /cry

He did get a hold of me. It's not something I know anything about, since I have no clue on the filters of the forum software, but I'm trying to bug the programmers. Not easy to get in touch with them on a Sunday morning though, so not sure when I'll get an answer.

I doubt this will make any difference, but try changing where you're posting from. As it's common to believe Gold Farmers/Sellers are Chinese, and you're from Beijing, the filters might automatically assume you're selling gold.

Sorry about the trouble you had with the filter. I added an exception to it for your account.

The email filter was set a little too sensitive and tripping on things it shouldn't have.

Of course now we're all curious, what was the filter tripping over? His account name?

So rodekylle was circumcised eight times by the electronic rabbi. Man between lodekyrre and rinuslead... Here I was thinking the filter was against Fisherman.

You've been spending time with MonxDoT again, haven't you? Smiley: dubious
