Hello forum moderators,
Many of my post recently have been flagged as spam. I’ve noticed a general trend regarding this: typically, it’s because I either posted a picture or sent a link. But over the past couple weeks it has gotten progressively worse. Now, I cannot color text. Just yesterday I was flagged for a random collection of text, which had nothing to do with anything “spammy”.
Ordinarily, this wouldn’t be much a problem. I can wait for moderator approvals. However, that’s not the case for PMs. On PMs the forum just blocks my response (because moderators cannot acess). This is getting annoying, because on PMs it is literally impossible to:
I am in an imagineering competition where I must brainstorm within a group PM. Quote a nusisance when I can’t post a picture to explain my idea, or send a link to a google doc for planning. And when it comes time to post the finished product on the forums, often times I will release on time but have to wait a day or two for mod approval, creating a controversy for the judges.
I understand this system is in place for first time “spam” accounts, but this is getting unreliable. At one point can I expect this madness to stop? I am willing to further discuss with the mods on a PM, where I can show examples (don’t want to reveal things to the other team). I don’t know how else to say this... I am not a spam account.
Thank you,

- Sometimes just a random sentence
