Database error message

[Sandy S]

I'm not able to add post in the fraud category currently. Last three attempts or so I get an error message.

Is it possible that occasional post attempts trip an auto moderation response? Maybe it is a coincidence, but the initial post attempt included a list of James Arthur Ray's intolerant views.

No one can start a thread in Frauds except moderators. You need to begin in Research, etc. Once enough evidence comes in it can then be moved by a mod to Frauds.

We've had problems in the past from people with a grudge putting people they don't like on a personal level or simply disagree with in Frauds.

Apologies, I did not explain clearly enough.

I'm not able to add to a Fraud thread. In this case the James Arthur Ray one.

SMF sometimes refuses to post comments with quotes from external sources. Over the years, I have found that this always happens when I quote texts with emojis. These must always be removed before SMF accepts my comments.

Maybe this is what happens to Sandy S?

I get an error message no matter where I post. I wanted to start a thread on "dr." Thomas Whitefeather.

Update: I'm not able to send messages. Not able to add to already existing Fraud threads.

I'm not using emojis. Not trying to copy and paste direct from external sources.

Sometimes not able to post anywhere on forums at all.

It is possible that the proper spelling of the Bahai faith isn't working.

Testing here also on Baha'i

No, this is not the issue
