Moderation ?

[Wombat457]

I know I am new here but I am a little confused. I have been able to post things without a problem (which is great) but last night and just now I have gotten a message saying that my post needs to be moderated before being able to be viewed by everyone. Is this a standard thing because I don't think the posts were contrary to the forum standards ...

Just curious if this is happening after every X amount of posts by me because I am new or for other reasons.

Hey, if you now report your post the system will send a notice to the admins as opposed to your waiting for someone to see it on the fly.

Thanks - appreciate the advice

I think you possibly didn't realise your posts were being moderated as I or another mod. was approving them as fast as you posted them. The recent ones you noticed were held in moderation simply because we weren't around or as quick off the mark!

So yes, your posts are moderated as a new member for a certain amount of time. Its simply to prevent spamming.

As you have proved to be a genuine member I'll fastrack you so that this happen.

Update. Ignore my previous post. I think its because you are using a VPN so our system picks up that the content IP of your post doesn't match the country you are registered in.

I had a feeling that it was due to my being new and sorry for the added work I have given you guys - I'll try to slow things a bit and honestly do appreciate being fast tracked to becoming a "normal member" here

Darn - sorry, my fault - I'll turn the VPN off. I use it of an evening and evidently left it on last night. Okay VPN is now off!

No worries…post away!

Hopefully you should be able to post without moderation now.

The moral is, post in moderation or you will be moderated..... moderately. What were we talking about?
