What are "banned words"?
hi everyone I am extremely new here! Please forgive me if I ask stupid questions.I was uploading a knitting pattern, and it wouldn't let me post because it said I had "banned words". I had to remove the description and pictures from the description box for it to be posted.
I have been looking at this text, and there were no questionable words there, no swearwords or anything that could remotely be considered "banned".
Please help me understand what I'm doing wrong.
Short time ago attacked by some web ads people ... Daily 5-6 ads /posted... When I fought with them I banned some "repeated" words ... After than they can not posted like these ads post in here ...
I banned lot of words ... Could you please send me the word , I can unban ofcourse :D
@turquoise
Some words have been prohibited on the site. The exact list of words is unknown, but it happens to everyone at some point. To avoid the conundrum, minimize the extraneous info in descriptions and watch what you name your images.Turquoise can elaborate further. @Turquoise Interesting. This is the first time I hear about "banned words". Is there any way to see the list of those? i tried to search a pattern here and i had no result because de word was banned
Wow! So this is some old lore as the youngsters would say. We all want the list now! Turquoise replied at 2025-9-26 07:06

First of all, I have to say, I love this creative solution :D
I don't know exactly which word it was! I will send the description, maybe you can run your list against it and see what shows up?
To be honest, I posted the pattern without a description, I'm not sure if it is possible to go back and edit now?
Not only am I new and unaware of how the website works, my level is also super low still, so my permissions are awfully limited haha.
Anyway, here's the description I was trying to post. Additionally I had pasted two pictures which I also removed, but I don't think those would trigger the "banned words" warning:

yeah i was wondering why it let me post that haha. the only other thing was a screenshot i took from inside the pattern. so this is really confusing.
I am trying to post the screenshot here but it's too big and there is a limit on the replies.
I am wondering how the screenshot could have messed with the banned word list. afaik windows just names them "image-date-time.png" something like this.
