Looking to not be banned for life for listing items some people would deem objectionable
examples:
- Glass Terrier Dog - eBay red flags me with a warning eBay flags the word dog frequently
- Novels with seemingly erotic words in titles.
- cherubs
- decorative collectible nudes statue forms
- Sextant

None of those words are banned. In conjunction with other words or phrases they could be causing problems, or it may be something totally different.
Post some of your full titles or the messages you received from eBay and we can try to help.

Glass Terrier Dog - eBay red flags me with a warning eBay flags the word dog frequently
I cannot imagine that dog is flagged routinely.
When I search dog I see 4 million listings.
When I search glass terrier dog I see 4100 listings.
Have you tried following the word dog with something like 'figurine'?
Have you tried searching glass terrier dog and seeing how other sellers are titling their similar listings?
What are the titles you have tried that are rejected?
Sextant
Again, when I search sextant I see 7400 listings.
Have you tried searching sextant and seeing how other sellers are titling their similar listings?
What are the titles you have tried that are rejected?

EBAY uses Ai to flag items. If you mispell "objectionable word" Ai won't be able to find it.

so you are telling me that all it takes to confound ebay ai is to misspell a word?
