    Just noticed this when I was replying to a thread in the Xenforo section I created.

    A kind bloke replied and used a smiley in his reply. I went to quote him and I get the error that "I need 25 posts in order to post links in this forum"

    I deleted his smiley and the post went through just fine.

    when i post ".me" on the other post, it would not went through too (while i am still having less than 25posts). i got the similar warn. lol. it was not even a link. but the system detected it that way to cut down link spams. :D i guessed the smiley has a "dot"?

    It looks for the dot. It isn't perfect, but, it has done what it is meant to do and that's stop the spammers.

    Good enough answer for me! Just didn't know if it was known or not!
