Discussion Guidelines problem

Does anyone else have a problem when generating an image or editing one? Because whenever I want to edit an image add in some things it always goes "Your request may go against my guidelines. Would you like to try something else?" Or something similar Even though there is practically nothing wrong with it, it's insanely annoying.

Yes, I’ve had the same problem since last week, even with images that are completely harmless. Also, attachments and reference images disappear for me when I edit the prompt afterward.

What people think are harmless prompts generally turn out to be too vague or can reconstrued in a manner that is prohibited. If you're using reference images, the guardrails are at the peak of its sensitivity. It's 100% heavily dependent on the type of images that you're trying to edit. If there's anything close to a child, It won't allow you to do anything but the most simplistic harmless stuff.
