Why am I considered spam ?

[oldairgunner]

Been a member here for a long time, I am more of a lurker rather than a poster (27 posts) I tried to list a scope and it said I appeared to be spam ? I assure I am not. I sold a Beeman R7 here once and the buyer was very happy with it. A little help please ?

Have you been shooting cans of Spam recently?  Shoot a bunch of old computer parts and try again.  If it says you're a bot, I'm outta here...

If you are getting an automated message I would look at my message content or the gate I was using. Though I will not claim to be overly familiar with the rules it seems there are some constants around how images or links are used. Maybe rules have changed since you sold your Beeman?

Are you using a VPN? That's what usually causes the most problems.

I don't see anything that suggests you are considered spam. If you were a "marked man" on the forum you would have not been able to post in the classifieds as you did today.

I'm not sure how many posts you had when you first tried to place an add in the classifieds (I see you only have 29 at the time of this reply) but, it don't matter if you have been a member for 10 years, if you haven't made 20 posts, you would not have access to the classifieds.
I hope this helps explain.
