Moderator approval ??

Just posted a reply to the IP camera problem thread in Techie World and it said it would appear when it has "moderator approval" . Whats all that about Are MY posts being "vetted"? I submitted a post to the same thread at 00:08 last night and that appeared straight away.


Just posted this one and it has appeared immediately, no approval needed, is it because the other contained links?

Dunno Electro,

but I know sometimes that happens with pics or if you have posted a link?

I'm sure the secret forum police aren't watching you ...yet

Thanks, that explains it then. So, the Golden rule to remember is not to post links/email addresses if you need to get the info up quick !!

Re: Moderator approval ??

The forum spam filter sometimes incorrectly identify posts which subsequently need moderating. It occasionally happens and can happen to anyone. Sorry it's had you this time Electro. If you have further problems give me a shout.

Re: Moderator approval ??

It can also do that if you post a 'post' with a lot of images in, using the [IMG] tags (as this requires a direct link in the [IMG] tags to display the picture)
