    Seems like every day or every other day, my first 2 or 3 posts are tagged by the "spam robot" as possible spam and have to be checked by a human, how about a human take the spam robot and adjust his settings or give him a good dose of electroshock therapy please.

    I periodically take the spam bot out back and "adjust his settings" with a baseball bat. Doesn't seem to help for very long, it's a stubborn beast.

    Sorry for the inconvenience, striker. It takes a liking to some accounts for an unknown reason and will dog them for an unknown length of time. The moderators will keep approving your posts in the meantime.

    If it makes you feel any better, my posts sometimes get tagged, too.

    It used to get to me but I used some east coast logic on it and it seems to leave me alone now.

    you would think, after 2,200 posts, the spam robot would realize I'm a human, or at least doing a good job pretending to be one

    If you break up quotes and do other things of a similar nature, it seems to throw them into moderation.

    The boss is our champion, though, we probably approve as many for him as the next 20 members put together.

    I was going to say that the spam bot possibly interned at Allison in assembly, but it seems it has no favorites, no one is special, and no one is immune, so I think it started out picking on posters here.

    You know, striker, these here machines communicate with each other. And they are all a part of a very strong union. I'm bettin' you cussed out a computer at some time in the past, and it communicated with the spam computer, and now you are going to have a time of it.:biggrin_2551:

    I get that periodically, too. Some days I have no problems, other days, I get hit with it on every post.

    Maybe the robot likes ya? :biggrin_25525:
