I got this error when I tried to post a reply - I certainly haven't tried to post it more than once!

Hi

 

I replied to OP successfully, but now can't reply to a reply.

It says I need to correct the highlighted errors, but I don't see any.

I logged out & in again to see if that would work but still no luck.

 

Any ideas?

(I'm on Windows10 using Chrome.)

This may not be the problem you're having, but all I needed to do was clear the formatting. I had been copying and pasting from my Google Doc. Adobe forums doesn't allow "foreign" formatting, even though it shows up exactly the same. I doubt this is what you're doing, but I figured I'd let you know anyway. I hope you figure it out!

"all I needed to do was clear the formatting."

 

Unfortunately, the bug just struck me again, and my draft post didn't contain any formatting. :-<

I got that error also by using a bad word filtered by by the Vice Squad. Using an alternate of that completly correct word in the given context solved the problem.

How did you figure out which word?  I read my reply (screenshot above) and don't see anything suspicious.

This is annoying. I'm trying to reply to a person who is part of a conversation I'm in and suddenly I am stopped dad by this: "Correct the highlighted errors and try again. Post flooding detected (community received posts of a unique message more than 1 times within 3,600 seconds)"

 

a) there are no highlighted errors to correct.

 

b) how am I flooding anything if I'm jst replying to a nice, civil thread?

 

What up? I logged out and back in and that didn't help

Hi @Brunettin 

It might be a case of the forum software acting up. Copy your Reply > Close the Browser > Try again. Post a screen shot of the error if it happens again so we can report it.

Yeah, I came back to it this morning and I was able to post again. Ghosts in the machine, I guess.

Thx!

You're welcome, Alan. It's happened to all of us, but not too often, thankfully.

Yes, it happens all the time. The new message box is sensitive to styled text. You can manually clean it with pasting it into a text-editor, and copy and paste from there.

It seems in my latest case it was about text proerties as per @Solo46 ’s advice but »post flooding« »more than 1 time in 3,600 seconds« seems like a noteworthily nonsensical description …
