What is going with this spam detection here?
-
Ok after a quick test, the includes themselves are innocent. It's the < > signs that triggers the detection. I think they might detected as html tags. A simple fix for that is to tell markdown that you are writing C++. Simply add c++ after the three ` when you write a code block and you're good to go.

Not all headers trigger the anti-spam plugin. In my investigation from the 10-15 includes only this block appeared to be troublesome. If I had to guess, the combination of
<,>and the wordsdebugorobjectare the prime culprit.Kind regards.

I'm trying to ask a question about a crash I'm seeing with a very small code snippet, but somehow the question is blocked, without any explanation as to why.
Why? Why?

Number 1: I think it is a very good idea to have some protection on a forum like this.
However: introducing such a thing, without letting any user of the forum know, apparently without even some of the moderators(!!!!) knowing exactly about the details, to me, is a very, very bad idea. To the user it feels they are not taken seriously, and the maintainers of the forum just do whatever they like. That is a very, very uncomforting feeling to get from a forum in the 'Qt-world', where usually a high standard of professionalism is the standard.

Hi
well considering I have posted around 2000 posts and been
hit 2 times, its not overly aggressive if u ask me :)Also its VERY normal not to tell/make public available how to cheat a filter as it
then stops working very fast.Also, it has been here all along. At least since I started. My first "SPAM" was
like in my first week.But I agree. I would be nice to know WHY it triggers on pretty normal code.

Pinging @tekojo -- the false positives with code snippets are still happening :(

As for why it hits code snippets... I'm not completely sure. My feeling is that it mistakes them for some sort of scripting attack.
To be honest the main type of spam we have had, has mostly been chinese false educational spam and weird korean stuff.

I find the rules somewhere, such that I can format the snippet differently?I just have tried myself being told it was spam when trying to post code.
Thanks

Hi,
I usually append c++ after the opening three back ticks when writing C++ code.
