Trying to post an ad in the classifieds. "SPAM alert" reads that I am spamming the list by the ad I am placing.
Can I get a clarifacation.

Actually, it's a list of words and phrases. A post cannot contain what is on each line of the above list.

For example:

The word "earn" cannot appear anywhere so "earnest" would be rejected and "learn" would be rejected. We have tried to cut down words that could be part of another benign word.
"Ass" was in there untill people started selling "glass", we took that word out.

The phrase "previous experience" can't appear anywhere, if it does the message gets the axe.

Brad might have added stuff that I don't know about so that is the list to the best of my knowledge.

I think Brad extended the list because I can't find anything in your ad that would get it rejected.

Thanks, That must be the problem, I beleive I used each of those words or phrases at least once in my ad for "the new 2003 euro front lite kit".

Can't use shit, fuck, or asshole?
I'm in big trouble.
I can't hardly string a sentance together without using at least 2 of these.

Smokin' & cussin' are my last 2 vices......well, there's fartin', but I see that as a virtue.

Were it not for these, I would be insufferably perfect.

Posted by: olav Jan 1 2003, 04:28 PM

How about burping?

Anyway, JP, we can make an exception for you if you want. You can put shit, fuck and whatever you want just say s h i t and f u c k and your in.

I have spent an hour trying to post this ad:

The new 2003 CAMP 914 front euro turn signal lite kit. This new and improved model came about after years of research and development can now be purchased for the front of your 914. Same old price $30.00 and the same old money back guarantee (satisfaction guranteed) May your new year be prosperous...

I had to pull out words like: if..to.. too still doesnt work.

I'm trying Craig.
