Problem Details:
So when trying to tell someone to contact accounts@ppy.sh instead of posting on the here, the tech support forum, I got the message below.
Basically it kept me from posting something to the correct place, while it didn't show it to the OP posting at the wrong place.

Now my question is;
What triggered this? And why did it trigger for me (this time) and not for the OP of the thread I was trying to reply to?
(Or anyone else posting account related issues in here, for that matter.)
This doesn't seem to be doing much of any good.

Either way, I mainly want to know what exactly triggered this so that I can avoid this and basically tell exactly what the message said.
But then to the person that shoudl recieve the message.

This is correct behaviour. You should be able to say something like:

For account related enquiries, please contact accounts@ppy.sh.

I can't remember exactly what I tried to post, but it was something along the lines of this.
(Using pastebin since it seems to keep me from posting once now aswell.)

I tried phrasing it differently twice, and I couldn't post it in either case. I've posted nearly identical messages before, and never had any issues.
Which is why I'm calling it a false positive, as it shouldn't block me from posting what I wanted to post.. at all.
So how is that correct behaviour?

I'm wondering why in the world it kept me from posting that time, and if there is such a 'filter' (by the lack of a better word),
why does it not even pop up for people that post account related issues on here?

you can't say silenced and ac/count in the same message.

please let me know if you see any queries in tech support that aren't getting filtered out. my aim is to get all ac/count issues out of here.

Allright, I see.

Well, just to give a few examples...
-
t/302655 (<- The one that got me to make this thread. It got me salty.)
t/302133
t/301829
t/297651
They basically all end up getting marked as invalid and moved to the Resolved Issue subforum manually by the Support Team (Redux).



Well, I can't think of anything to suggest to aid this issue of people posting it on the Tech Support forum that hasn't already been done.
(Sometimes I wonder if people even read the Announcement threads at the top...)
That being said, I now know why it happened, so I guess this can be marked as resolved and moved away?

Confirm
Writing down 10 lines, adding spaces etc. Doesn't fix it
Please
This is really annoying

Edit: only typing: Email accounts@ppy.sh does work
But it does not when telling why (server)
