POSTS FAILING because they contain words from HTML dictionary

Posts failing if certain HTML words are used in text even if they are not part of HTML code.

I spent half hour editing my post (I had to nail the reason why it wont post) until I found that without part of the text "in game t i t l e" it posts.

Then i realized t i t l e is HTML tag,

So you can not use word T I T L E at all in your sentences, and there is several more normal words (but that are also part of HTML coding syntax) and if you have any of those your posts will fail.

Now I see why so many posts are failing.

It appears that forums recognize HTML words, and only allow many of them if they are a part of HTML coding, otherwise it fails to post.

    Ha! Thanks, for the heads up. Maybe it is a feature and they are just sanitizing user input to strictly or something?

    Thank you very much! Now at least we can try to avoid those.

    On long texts it's really hard to find all the keywords... wasn't able to.

    My workaround: I made a picture of my text and posted that xD
    See: https://www.ashesofcreation.com/forums/topic/lifespans-aging-and-growing-up/

    Not pretty... but works

    This sucks. I just experienced the same thing. Great advice to post it as a picture. I'll be doing the same.
