Are some forums here moderated and some not? I posted yesterday in Commuting and my thread was there right away and today I tried to post in Maintenance and I got an announcement saying it was put in for moderator's approval. Why would the maintenance forum be moderated and others not be? Just seems like a weird forum to be moderated.
:confused:
Us maintenance geeks are real foulmouths and troublemakers, ya know ;)
Just kidding. It sounds like a glitch. I think there are moderators here who will step in and ask people to cool down or moderate themselves occasionally, but it doesn't happen often.
I was wondering, I mean I just can't see anyone getting into flame wars over how to adjust their brakes or something :D But then again, I've been on the 'net long enough to know better :rolleyes:Quote:

It depends. If you are a new poster (I think it's under 5 posts), and you have any kind of a link in your post, it will get moderated until one of us admins approves it.
ETA: I found your moderated post, it had a picture link. I've cleared it, you should see it now.
Thanks, that one with the pic was actually a different one and I had unthinkingly hotlinked in it, so I figured that was why that one was moderated. It was another one that I had posted to the Maintenance forum that was all weird.Quote:

Great! I'll forward all the WOW Gold spam to you! And let me tell you, there is a LOT of it! Are you also interested in discounted cell phones or fake Gucci watches? I can send those to you, too.Quote:
