Hi,
Im new to the forum and Im trying to create a post but it have been flagged as spam. I have a deadlock problem so I tried to post the sql code, deadlock xml and attached the deadlock graphic, that was the first try, second I removed the jpg it failed again and thrid time i only posted the sql code and still flagged as spam.
What's happening? How can I prevent it to happen?
Thank you in advance.

It's a part of the anti-spam algorithm they use on this forum. It makes life real difficult for those with just several posts. I forget how many posts it discriminates against. It may actually be the dots in your name that it's having a fit about. You might try changing them to spaces.

RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.

I had the same problem. I had a nice post about Azure SQL and making events from table inserts, and BAM -- it's SPAM.

You folks should hum a rock at the webmaster for this site to do two things...

See if they'll "unspam" your post.
See if they can improve the anti-spam bot to help keep this from happening.
