AAAND It happened again. It appears that if I post a message, it's ok, but if I edit it directly after (adding more text or correcting spelling errors), it is flagged as spam...
Surely I'm allowed to correct my speeling errors?

Messages remain under review until someone (CP member) releases them. If we are all off drinking, watching GoT, reading etc., then it may take a while. Remember the moderators are all volunteers, and some of them do actually have real lives.

I saw that you had commented that post with a smilie, so I assumed that he had posted it himself as a joke... Hence why I removed the comment you just cited.
As for real lives: Ain't nobody working with computers that have real lifes, is there?

You put that on purpose, didn't you?

You have 11 articles, multiple awards and you have been here more than 2 years. Are you ignorant of the ongoing battle CP has with spam and plagiarism?
Give the poor bastards who do the moderation a break, wait a couple of days before jumping up and down if your article doesn't instantly get published.
Never underestimate the power of human stupidity

Thanks for your advice. Now, that's pretty much clear to me. 
|
|
|
|
|
Is this happening when you post messages or when you edit messages after posting, or both?
We're trying to track down why this is happening. It shouldn't be.

I'm sorry, but probably you have misunderstood.
My problem actually was that multiple blank articles templates were occasionally added to my profile. Presently, I'm experiencing no issues with forum messages that I have posted. Indeed, the only one message posted yesterday was temporarily flagged as spam, but gradually it was approved to be posted and I normally have got no problems with posting forum messages at this time.
Chris, thanks for your reply and care to track down this problem, but, it's a slightly different case.

Ah.
Have you gone to the submit article page or clicked "edit" on any of your articles without proceeding?
cheers

Not, for sure.

I've found the issue and am deploying a fix right now.
Sorry for the confusion.

Thank a lot again for spending a moment to resolve this issue. Hopefully, the fix you're about to deploy will make this problem gone.

I have encountered some WV files in a recent torrent, and I'd like to get it into FLAC format, although I would accept it in WAV (which of course I would have no problem then converting into FLAC). I seem to have hard time locating such a good FREE converter. I tried FreeMake, but it has a virua. I have tried MediaHuman, but it gives me a stupid message that it can't continue . I figured out how to use VLC, but it seems to be a real PITA, so I'm looking for something better. A while back I used to use SUPER, which was really something, although now it seems that it comes with a virus.

Maybe try ffmpeg. Its about as swiss-army-knife as they come. Download FFmpeg
I don't know if there's a GUI front end, for it under Windows, though.

Yes, WinFF.FFmpeg was able to convert from WV to WAV, after which Freac was able to convert to FLAC.

Sadly, this doesn't surprise me. I find SO to be a much better source of answers to programming questions than CP. I attribute this to the high degree of curation in their forums.

Hahaha! And ... I suppose, because of your rep, your message does not disappear (goes into the queue) like mine. My where very very very more reserved. I assume this is the next post catched by the spam filter

Actually, at least have the reason for my post is that when I do a search and it comes up as a link to "them", I often find it blithering. Or dismissive. It seems, at least in Q&A, things are much politer here.*
Perhaps it's just the subjects that I search. You know - what do they call that thing - coincidence?
* Maybe our ranking would soar if we moved Q&A to the Soapbox ?
