Maybe you are using an extinct mouse...it's the color of your keyboard...clean everything off your desk, click your heals twice....

Seriously I know those that know what they are doing are trying to find a solution...I however am responsible for comic relief at appropriate and inappropriate times...I didn't say good comedy, not even intelligent comedy.

You could PM me your thread, and I could start it for you and get blamed for it. That's the ticket the noobie mod takes a bullet for the noobie poster....whatever it takes.

you still need to clean the desk though...or is that me?

Hurrah! It worked! I don't think I did anything different (if anything the desk is less tidy.... ). but

So glad I could help...er...

Um, I have the same problem. Most of my posts appear, but I have a couple of posts that don't appear - they're waiting for mod permission. What's the difference between a normal post and one that has to be filtered? Weird... Is it because of the links?

(oh, and I'm kind of slow, so I posted both these posts two, three times before noticing that I had to wait for a moderator's permission )

[I, Brian]

Yep, links - sorry about that.

I think I managed to trip the auto-mod red flag. I'm pretty sure I did not include any links and I don't think I quoted any... but I did say the word sex and terrorist... like someone else. Haha, I'm not an old mum, but a young woman, and my post was against terrorism and the removal of woman's sex organs like it's so sadly and horribly done in some places... I PMed a mod, but I guess this answered my question about why I got pre-moderated. Should have looked first, I suppose.

Oh dear, I believe I am a complete moron. I repeated the things in my other post and got the first post I tried to make in this thread pre-modded, too!

Maybe this one will go through. :S I'm a little confused, though. I guess this is now a "Help! Where are my threads?!" post. Is this done by links or words or both?

[brucegdc]

Silly jamaesi. Saying "I think I tripped the mod flag by saying XXXXX " is just going to trip it again

The word "Sex" is definitely on the auto-mod list due to the spammers. Won't stop your post from getting here eventually - it's just that one of the mods has to notice and reset the flag on the post. I try to check in a couple of times a day to grab them, but things are somewhat overly busy around here these days so I don't always get in to check, although there are a number of mods out there, so one of us will realize eventually.

Hi Jamaesi,

Looks like you found the answer to your question.

I'd hate to be a bother, seeing as I'm new as well, but my introduction post isn't showing up for me... Which is odd, because someone visited & commented on my blog from my intro post at this forum.

Thank you,

- John

Okay... I've reread your code of conduct and I understand the policy concerning promotion. I have just one question, though - at what time would I be considered tenured enough to post links?

[I, Brian]

It's either 10 or 15 posts - I changed the filters recently so I'm not exactly sure without double checking.

Apologies for the inconvenience - it's simply that forums are so regularly targeted for spam that we need to take proactive action.
