Posts Getting Automatically Flagged

Feb 24, 2016

Hi @Articulate, 

I've noticed some of my posts are getting automatically flagged when I add a comment to them on my desktop. I've also seen other threads where is mentioned that the posts get flag, marked as potential spam and you guys have to clear them.  Apparently, this is due to some spam attacks on the site.  Would it help to have a reCAPTCHA function for flagging?   I'm sorry but, my troubleshooting mind is going crazy on this ;  )

All my new threads are also getting flagged right away.

I double posted one because I thought I clicked it myself but sure enough it's also flagged.....hate to be that guy but one of the main reasons why this forum is great is the speed at which you can ask questions or help others, and after an hour thread is still awaiting moderation.

Is there anyway I can verify my account as a "secure user" or something?

Looks like it's all set Padmakar. Sorry about that!
