Patience Josh has a life outside TFO (gasp!) and he will get back to you as soon as he can.

In the mean time, are you trying to post a lot of links to outside sources? That can cause the spam filter to activate.

no outside links what so ever on it. just a picture of what it is and prices.

Sometimes by referencing 800 numbers or any phone numbers and or email addresses will do it too

Try without the dollar symbol too

Posting pictures will set it off sometimes, as will very short posts. I've had it happen a few times and I just waited a while and tried again with more text.

well i tried taking the email address out and posted the ad and the system banned me! lol!! but as you see, i've been reinstated. i guess i will wait for a response from josh before i post it again. don't want to get banned again!
