Post denied?

Got this message when I tried to post a RMT thread in the RMT section:
Post denied. New posts are limited by number of URLs it may contain and checked if it doesn't contain forbidden words.

Don't understand this. I'm not sure what it means by forbidden words, I didn't use any swear or inappropriate words. Plus, I never put a single URL/link into my post. Can anyone help?

You have to make at least 10 posts before you can post links.

I'm going to take a guess at the issue. As you mentioned RMT, the restriction stopped your post because you used @ signs (e.g. @Choice Band), or the such. The filter or whatnot thinks it's an email address and counts it as a link.

This limit is in place, btw, to stop adbots spamming ads. I think those who were on the forums a few months back will widely agree that this implementation has stopped the bulk of them. It was crazy back then. -_-
