Turns out we still had one of our old spam fighting measures in place: a nightly job that would delete any post with more than 5 URLs in the text. That worked great back in the day, but now that we allow YouTube embeds (with 2 URLS apiece)... not so much.

Anyway, I've simply turned that thing off, since our current bayesian filter makes it unnecessary. Your original post is back live again. I'll assume you don't need to have the duplicate one reactivated?

Sorry for all the trouble. I think we're out of the woods on this one!
