No posting URLs before 15 posts

    This has been happening to me for a few days now and I ignored it until I was about to post a huge reply and got that god damned message. The worst thing is, I can't edit my posts nor reply to other users. I always get the message even though my posts contain NO URLs whatsoever.

    Can someone help please?
     
    The reason the rule is in place is to prevent adbots from coming onto our forum, and also to prevent users from advertising to prove that they're legit members and want to be a part of the community. I'm not sure about your other problems though, unfortunately. :(

    It really shouldn't be a problem to make it to 15 posts though, so just find some areas around the forum to post in and you'll make it to 15 posts in no time! :)
     
    Yet again I tried to quote your post and got the same message...

    Thanks for the help anyways. I'll do my best to contribute to this community. :)
     
    Really sorry about that. As Zach mentioned, making 15 posts shouldn't be that hard. If you visit forums such as Chit Chat & Polls or Pokemon General/Pokemon Voting Polls, they have quick & easy-to-post-in threads that can boost your count easily. The Welcome Lounge is also a good place to post in as well, not only you boost your count, you can make new friends as well. As long as you don't spam or anything like that, you should be fine, and you'll make it to 15.

    Try it after checking the "Disable smilies in text" box at the bottom of the post editor. The smilies could be what are triggering it!

    As a matter of fact, quote this post. I'll leave a smilie code in so you can test it out. :) <- that face is a code for a smilie.
     
    The same thing happened to me on another forum. I don't know if you're doing this, but if you're using the "@" symbol, then that could be triggering it. I know that was the problem for me on another forum.

    If that's not the case, then I would leave out any symbols whatsoever. Other than that, just try to make a lot of posts.

    Tried both your methods and still didn't work. I think anything that takes me to a posting/editing page comes out as having URLs. Quick reply is the only thing that seems to be working for me, aside from "creating a thread" page of course.
     
    3 more posts to go and you won't have to worry about it.. I'm going to say it is likely smilies doing it as well . since they are basically image links, they trigger the url filter.
