Here occasionally, but mostly somewhere else |
I was going to send a link to a friend, but got a popup , the site saying I couldn't to prevent spam, please go back and remove link.
Fair enough, although I've previously received links from friends... Anyway, there was no point sending the "see this link" message without an actual link, so I didn't bother.
I then went to reply to a message from someone else, only to find I now have a message ban.
...for not doing something?
Admittedly it's only a couple of hours (is that two or three?), but surely if the checks are there to prevent the crime, there's no need for a punishment? |

You sent a link that has been used before by spammers. In these cases we manually add the known link/domain to our custom blacklist. The block on messages will auto expire shortly.
We do these kind of time blocks to help keep the site free of spam. Occasionally innocent people will get a block
