Include "do not use these tags" warning when posting a thread #985

I got an Autoban for posting a thread with a forbidden thread tag. I only post from my phone and the iPhone app doesn't have a warning that tells you "You will be automatically banned for using this tag!" anywhere in the app, so I basically just got owned for $10-40 bucks (if I have to rebuy all my upgrades). Can you please add that warning so phone posters don't GET GOT? — Bust Rodd

I got auto-banned last week for posting a thread using a mod only tag. Pretty fucking dumb thing to do of me, I know. Thankfully, Jeffrey took pity on me and un-banned me.

In my defense, when you post on the site, the left column always mentions the forbidden demon fruit tags. The iOS app doesn't have a left column and I fucked up. Or maybe it does have something similar and I didn't notice.

This has been the most traumatic experience of my life;
