No. It is obvious that I can't write a good authentic spam message...

Do you Need an example?

Have you tried to post harmless links and / or plausible links for the filters?

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you

One complaint, from Mr. Complainer.

You know this hand with the one finger

Sorry, I should not have said Mr Complainer, more like Mr ****.

I hope this isn't how your company tests its releases in Production.

When I created this account back in August just about every post I made for the first month or so went straight to moderation. (Not complaining, just fyi. I just assumed it was the norm, and fair enough really.)

I had that when I came back in my present un dead form a few months ago. Every post came into moderation before being shown. I linked it to the privilege 'Bypass spam checks when posting content'. It's easy to reach by getting silver reputation in any of quite a few categories. Once I had that, my posts appeared normally ever since.
Instead, the whole mess with ever changing layout settings began.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.

...don't break it.
Which is what a heck of a lot of "reengineering" projects end up doing.

In the last 8 months we were just there...
We have a in-house 'monster', written in VB6 used to manage bugs and feature requests (you can call it a project management tool)...
We invited Jira to show us how to do it in the right way... after 8 months (of which most spent on convincing us to do thing in a totally different way we used to in the last 15 years) we sent them away...

Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?

It's a difficult balance.
Is it something that is used all day, everyday, by an office full of workers?
If so, then it's going to be difficult to replace: you have to factor user buy-in, retraining costs, as well as the direct replacement costs against the productivity / morale benefits at the end.
If it's use by one guy, once a month, and he follows a sheet of instructions to do it, then it's not worth it: chances are it'll be a couple of years until you realize it has subtle but critical differences nobody noticed.
Not just software either: ask the early adopters who replaced their Galaxy Note 6 with a shiny new Galaxy Note 7 ...

I used to break things all the time back in the 90's with my lack of experience, "great ideas" and 1000+ page software books on my desk.
The difference is that nowadays people break things with style and the latest technology and frameworks.
Being an old curmudgeon I just see people breaking things

I think that exactly what experience does to you... Without it you force new ideas on everything ("if you have a hammer every problem looks like a nail"), with it you use new ideas only when it really has any use...

It was years since I thought to compress files in use (not on backup)...

You forgot an "M" in the word "MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM". There are 28 M's in that word, you only put 27. Just saying.
