Schrödinger’s post

[Dr Paul Leyland]

I seem to have created a post which is both in the forum and not in the forum, simultaneously.

The For Sale forum has a thread about 12th Edition Norton’s Star Atlas. I replied to Denis Buczynksi’s post and the forum tells me that my reply is now a few minutes old. However, clicking on the link(s), re-loading the page, and so on shows no post by me at all! Using a different browser (post created by Firefox, examined with it and with Chromium) makes no difference.

What to do?

Paul,

I found your post in the forum spam box, but have approved it.

I think if you do multiple edits in quick succession, this may trigger a spam action.

Thanks Callum.

Hi Callum,

It looks like another of my posts went astray, this one about 3I/ATLAS. Could you see if it has been wrongly marked as spam please?

This behaviour is very annoying. Can it be improved please?

[Callum Potter]

Hi Paul,

it was marked as spam because you made a couple of rapid edits of the reply. I have approved it.

With the anti-spam package we use it is not something we have control over, sorry.

Thanks!
