Inability to send PMs?

[Eternal Eyes]

Apologies if this is in the wrong section but it seems I can't send PMs anymore, or at least to the user who I've been messaging. This is the message I get "

Ah, I was about to post a thread with the same problem! I can't seem to send messages with the same failure message as you quoted. I tried with 3 or 4 different members here on the forum, with different content.
it would be my first private message but destiny doesn't want me to obviously. Or some technical error. Can an admin or mod please help us out?

Some words are naturally blocked and disable the message getting sent, I've never found out which, I believe D R U G S is one of them.

Better safe than sorry I guess. Not a complaint against mods, thanks for running this website, it's my only safe space :(

One of the words seemingly disabled in private messages, is idi.ot.

Bit overzealous moderating there don't you think?

ok thanks for the info. i'm not sure what forbidden word i used, as i was trying to send different messages to different people, all very short. so the likelihood is low that i hit one of the blocked words. hm strange.

i just tried again. title of the message was "test", content was "this is only a test message" - same problem. maybe it looked to much like spam because of its shortness..?

This is happening to me as well. And I haven't used words like drugs, suicide, etc.

I just sent a message that says Hi in the title and "testing" as the content as a test today. Same thing, spam.

I can't even use the "contact us" button without getting the "you are spam" message. I tried replying to @Dot when they dm me a while back. Still got the spam message. And it isn't my VPN. It's set to a UK location, as previously advised.

After switching off my VPN, my dm to @Dot went through. So UK based VPN, was the problem for me.

Try to switch off your VPN completely.
