Why wasn't my message approved?

Yakster

Hey Newbies, if you get an error message when trying to post to the forum that "your comment will appear after it's been approved" try posting without quoting others, especially try without a lot of usernames like @yakster, etc.  

For some reason this happens to newbies, but after a mysterious (to me) amount of time (about a week, I've heard) and experience (maybe secret badges) it doesn't happen any longer. It's been a while since I've been a newbie and my memory isn't that good.

Generally these comments sit in the bit bucket forever waiting to be approved except that one time when hundreds and hundreds of pending comments were approved en mass flooding the forum with old replies to long forgotten conversations like a wormhole had opened up or something.

Or you could what I did and pay Peter five dollars and he would get them approved faster......At least that's what he told me.....I think I got snookered. 

Yakster

I remember that.  Pay five dollars and wait a week and it was smooth sailing. Yeah, that's the ticket.

Bump for the newbies, but now that we have an active mod this may not be much of a problem anymore.

@Yakster no issues for me so far.

It will happen.

Bump for @AlexLong and other newbies.

Just happened to me. You would think that after 300+ post they already know I'm going to say something inappropriate!

Probably some random triggers.

I think @CigarChick must be on sabbatical or something. Haven’t heard a peep out of her for a good while, now, even though she’s been asked to respond.....

Well, that's good. Glad she's still around.

Sorry guys... Without the proper tag, the alert doesn't come through to any of my inboxes.  Been super busy with holiday stuff, the re-design of the main website, and a boatload of meetings on the road.

In any case, I've approved the post @Far_North_64 and set something on your account so it won't happen again. There was a SPAM Bot that went ham on your posts and it caught them up in a filter, but I removed it from the site.
