“Computer says your input might be spam, so it is discarded.”

I run into a page telling me that “Computer says your input might be spam, so it is discarded.” a lot recently.

This happens especially when posting links.

While I do understand that spam protection is necessary, could you guys please relax the rules a bit and whitelist links into the Qt sources, docs, etc.? Thanks!

Great! I can not even post this without getting the error mentioned above.

Our gitorious site is not liked by the spam protection:( Even mentioning qt dot gitorious dot org outside of a link gets me the spam message:(

[EDIT: fixed striketrhough, Volker :-)]

Strange … I just write qt.gitorious.org within a sentence without any problems….

Perhaps it’s a restriction to super admins :-)

qt.gitorious.org [qt.gitorious.org]

works for me

I just clicked edit on Gerolfs post, copied the text and went back. Then I pasted it into the “Post a reply” area and hit post reply. Voila… “Computer says your input might be spam, so it is discarded.” Nice:-/

Perhaps it is because you post lots of separate messages in a row instead of editing your last message for adding information? ;-)

Tobias, chetankjain: Does it work if you try to edit my comment here (add something at the end), which includes a link to gitorious [qt.gitorious.org] as well as something written out from qt.gitorious.org like this: https://qt.gitorious.org/qt-labs/jom/blobs/master/src/jomlib/exception.cpp in this sentence, just to trigger the protection…. ||||| added by chetankjain to test Volker’s statement! :)

Chetankjain: I wonder when we will get the “Spammer” badge…

That would actually turn me into a spammer troll:-)

Volker: Plain edits ok. Copy paste of even plain text (without any git link) as mentioned by Tobias gives that Spammer error.

Tobias = Spammer Troll => Chetan = Mad Spammer
:P

I think there was some login on not pasting the same text several times. So perhaps try to copy the text and modify everything other than the ww.gitorious.org stuff
