I realize that similar questions have been asked, but through all of the ones I've seen, the answers seem to be specific, normally asking the author about the specific question.
I'm trying to ask in the "Game Development Stack Exchange Q&A Site" about why video games are violent—is it a historical convention, a practical necessity, what people want? But when I try to post I get the "This looks like spam." error message and am not allowed to ask my question.
What can I do?
Post a shorter question.
There are a whole pile of "trigger words" that will block a post based on their use in various spam campaigns. One word won't do it, but a high proportion of words will, as will a simple volume of trigger words.
You have almost 700 words in your question. And, you use the same words a lot: about 30 instances for both "game" and "violent" and variations for example.
Trim it down a bit. Also, read what is on-topic for Game Development Stack Exchange first. Try to find a clear, answerable question and include enough information about what you're doing to help us understand where you're coming from; dispense with broad commentary and irrelevant personal notes. Aim for 3-4 paragraphs, enough to fit comfortably on-screen and not so much that folks will give up; this isn't a discussion forum or debate society, and problem statements are generally very short.
