Blocked Forum Posts

From time to time, you may encounter a message that says your post has been blocked.  

What does it mean when it says I've been blocked?

Not to worry, this doesn't mean your entire user has been blocked.  It does mean that something was detected inside the post or topic you were creating that we had to block for security purposes.

What do I do next?

The best thing to do is to shorten and simplify your post, possibly breaking it up into multiple posts.  To simplify the post, try removing special characters like a dash (-), an asterisk (*), and hash (#) which can sometimes trigger security warnings.

What if it still doesn't work?

Feel free to reach out to our Customer Support team and let us know what you're running into and we'll see if we tell you what might be preventing your post.  Be sure to share a copy of your entire post with us so we can see what the content was.
