Can't reply to a post because my comment gets flagged as spam

Thanks for the reply, but my comment is still getting marked as spam.
After doing some searching, it seems that there is a reputation requirement but it's unclear how much is needed and the error message I get is not helping.

Hi,

Did you post your code between coding tags ?

[Cofeiini]

Yes. I tried both inline code and code blocks.

[SGaist]

How long is the code that you are trying to post ?

[Cofeiini]

It's just two lines and both have about 60 characters.

I had this issue yesterday, the reason turned out to be... repeated words. I said "very" a few times in a row and it got auto-flagged. Removing the duplication solved the issue. Maybe it will help also in your case - the reason for the flag may be completely stupid ;-)

[JonB]

So make sure your code does not have a repeated word, like long long ;-)

I tried to condense the message and removed as much duplicate text as I could, but I still get flagged as spam. I made sure there are no links and have only one code block.
This would be more manageable if the notification gave more information >:|

Perhaps contact Akismet.com, so they appreciate there is an issue.
At the same time, maybe Qt could pressure Akismet.com to resolve this issue.

Try uploading your code to https://pastebin.com/ and post the link instead

I think it's a plugin, so the service itself isn't in direct control of this. It's probably a slightly aggressive configuration that is blocking me. I've been digging for more info and the common filter has been the reputation on the forum.

That might work, but I imagine links being filtered just like code blocks. I'll try the pastebin if I don't get this working pretty soon.

I have the same problem trying to post content to this thread: https://forum.qt.io/topic/158879/no-suitable-kits-found-no-qml-utility-installed-fedora-40-qt-6-7-2

At the same time, maybe Qt could pressure Akismet.com to resolve this issue.

It should be pretty easy to resolve this... just ignore everything that is in a code block. Spammers don't use code blocks.

This is incredible. I write a detailed post and get this error as well. This is so frustrating. And apparantly no solutions have been found since last year? I mean you can't post code blocks in Qt forum?

@linuxguy123 they will start to once they realize the code blocks is not checked.
