Post need approval by a moderator...

[SHIVAN]

I just approved a bunch of posts that "required approval" due to too many URL's in the posts, or likely a match to a known IP address that has been listed in our spam filters.

If any posts are still missing, they were either edited out due to content, or lost in some other anomaly.

There are still some pending threads for the SME forum.

I just had this problem happen to me. I didn't catch what the pop-up said but noticed my post did not take and just assume I screwed up. I retried to post and the same thing happened. I thought it was a "new feature" so I came here, found this thread and recognized the pop-up. After reading it I reposted without the URLs and the post took, I then edited my post to add the URLs and they all took. So Mods, if you find a couple of my posts in cyber-space feel free to chuck them out. Thanks.

This just happened to me. I figured it was cause I'm one long winded mo fo and maybe I wrote down too many words for the NSA to be content with just letting me post willy nilly...

But seriously. I just had it happen to me as well. The only thing I did differently was I linked to a forum I follow for my truck called: tacomaworld.com. It seems to use the same programming as this site. Either way, FYI this is still going on.

Please solve this problem, the world needs to know how I just bought a killer polymer storage bin...

And it happened with my last post here too.

If you run into this in an open area of the site, we ned to know which board and thread you were attempting to post into. It may just be that some restrictive settings were inadvertently activated in a particular area. AC

OK - just happened to me in the "Disaster Preparation & Planning" section - the solar flare thread in particular - 17:50 EST.

Don't see anything awaiting moderation, and can see that you were able to post into the thread, but as we say in the aviation business "fly it and watch it." If you run into this again, just send up a flare.

Happened to me too. Same thread, right after yours.

My post from last night has not been added to this thread, though others are able to post.

Also I am at or over 200 posts but can't post in GD.

[Army Chief]

Default settings allow the staff to see pending posts before they become publicly viewable, and I didn't spot the little icon that should have informed me (and other staffers) that your post had been inadvertently flagged as "spam." I thought it was already hanging on the board and visible to all, as per normal.

I manually approved it, will run the traps on the spam filter again and try to watch specifically for this in the future.

GD issue should now be fixed.

Just a heads up to the mods I received the same Post pending moderator approval notification a few minutes ago whilst attempting to post a couple photos in the motorcycle thread in the GD.
