@stephenw10 asked me to post here to ask for upvotes as a way of working around the SPAM block. I posted a message and immediately edited it to revise its subject but the forum software blocked the change as SPAM.

Thanks for the Upvotes... seems to have worked, post subject has been updated.

Optional info if you are interested or tracking this: I could not edit the post after only 1 Upvote, but could edit it after either 2 or 3 Upvotes... I saw 2 Upvotes, successfully edited the post, came back here, saw 3 Upvotes... so it was 2 or 3 Upvotes that allowed the edit.

Thanks again @stephenw10 and everyone else!

You need a 'reputation' of 5 or more. Which you now have.

It's working great now... thanks again for the quick tip/reply.

The same is happening to me. Any chance to get some upvotes/reputation?

Thank you!

I just discovered this issue. I've been a member for a long time, but I rarely post except when I'm really stuck with something. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

You have rep >5 now so you should be good.

same thing here. I sign up to try to get help with an issue and cannot post the question/issue because too many people post spam so in order to get actual help you need to do a bunch of unrelated crap to be upvoted so you are not seem as so Bot that is posting random crap.

So hopefully posting this will help me be able to post the actual question about the actual issue i have.

Unfortunately the alternative is an uncontrollable volume of spam.

If you post again we can upvote that too to reach 5 quicker.
