Database error message

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.
