Every so often i will get blocked when i try to post something. For example i was blocked by making this post
http://codepad.org/jn4h4KZp


I had to codepad it because i cant post it here. There is no URL or anything in it that should verify a legit reason to block it?
One of the intrusion detection systems probably detected it as an attempt to execute system commands.
It woudl be nice if it was a little more lenient. I seem to have that happen all the time. It was a legit response and complete answer for anyone google searching similar problems.

Hi,

I believe the cause of this is actually CloudFlare's content filter. I'll ask someone in the team to look into it.

Thanks
Tom

Yup. It's Cloudflare's WAF.
