I'm trying to reply to the "Mechanical instruments" thread, and I can neither Preview nor Post. I get this:
There Is A Problem
Unfortunately, the page you are looking for has been moved or deleted. This happens sometimes, usually because we changed a link, so don't worry it's not your fault. Please use the menu at the top of the page to find the information you are looking for. Thanks for visiting and God bless you.
Note my post in the Non-Traditional Theology section about the Bath of Regeneration.
I tried there and in another thread to post this Alexander Campbell article, over and over and over again. I've asked for help.
I am repeatedly having the same issues you are. Also, a friend of mine who is a member here also tried to post this article for me and he could not do it either. I have posted this article at another forum other than Grace Centered with no issues. It's a standard Word type document I'm trying to post. No special document protection or formatting involved. I've split it up into smaller sections and I was able to finally get some of it posted.

I was not even posting any links or attachments. Just a standard "Quote" reply.
Is anyone looking into this issue?
I posted a "test" reply that worked fine.
But when I manually copied the material I wanted to post into a fresh non-quote reply, it failed.
I have the same issue, I can't include a quote, attachment, or even a smiley.
I've been having problems with it the last few days - especially quotes.
Quotes not working for me, but I've had that problem for quite awhile.
So is anyone looking into the issue to fix it? Or is there no one with the kind of expertise required?
I sent this thread link onward to someone.
I'm looking into it. Trying to duplicate the problem right now.

Thank you!
FWIW, for me it (so far) only seems to be happening in that one thread. Obviously in this one I am able to quote.
Try putting the post you want to make in this thread. It is possible that some very innocuous word or combination of words is triggering the board censor. That has happened to me before. The only way I've been able to find the problem when that happens is to type or paste in a paragraph at a time and click preview. If it gives me a preview then I add the next paragraph. If it gives an error, then the problem is within that paragraph.

This seems to be exactly the problem.
Can you give me a list of the words the retarded censor finds objectionable?

I'm fairly computer savvy. I did what you suggested a couple of days ago and explained that I had tried that repeatedly in another thread, but it did not work. I posted a few sentences at a time and I was still able to post only part of what I wanted to post. In my case, I was able to post the very same article at another forum which also has tight restrictions as far as censorship.

Try adding smilies and see if you still get redirected.
I haven't been able to hit the quote button and it do anything for a long time.

You could at least work around that (inconveniently) by copying and pasting, and manually inserting the quote tags. Possible, but bleh. ::doh::
Or you can simply right click on Quote and then click open in new window. With that, the quote functionality is back, but you must do it each time you quote, which is not that bad.

I always have to use that method on my old laptop, but on my MacBook Air, I don't.
I think it's something to do with Internet Explorer.

I don't use it, and it's disabled on my Surface, as well this happens on my MacBook Pro.

Sorry, I don't have a list, and it seems to change. It has been a long time since it happened to me, but every time it did, it was something completely innocuous like couch or oatmeal.
::shrug::
Once it happened to me, and several others had used exactly the same word in the same thread, apparently without any problem.

Obviously some of us are having different experiences, as I said above "try post a smiley" but I see you did with no problem. I still cannot.
::juggle::
*Edit, now that portion seems to be working for me ATT.

I'm able to post excerpts of documents now, but still cannot post a "smiley" or an image link, and cannot use Bold or Italicized feature.
