Help!

I posted a comment on a gallery and it wasn't inappropriate, but it came up with a message saying it was inappropriate. I don't know how to be able to post it! Help?

Re: Help!

Hi Paperclips, the word filter on the website is very sensitive and causes a lot of false positives.

I took a look at the message you were trying to post, and the word that keeps triggering the notification is "woodpecker". Maybe try to find an alternative way to say "woodpecker"?

Sorry but taken out of context, I can see how woodpecker would be banned
But how is it filtered? It's not a common...err...word to use

I don't.  :L  Probably a good thing.
Maybe use wood pecker, with the space.

Wow, I didn't know it was that sensitive! This is the first time it's happened to me, it's been quite good.
