Any new member that has posted under 15 posts, certain words or say posting a link, or picture will trigger the built in forum software.These posts will be flagged for approval by a mod.Its to safe guard the members,now a lot of my time is now unfortunately dealing with the spammers.Now these types join up, then some start posting porn links and sometimes fully open pictures.Now most of these get flagged,members cannot see them but all mods admin can.Now all of these posts are deleted or quarantined and the spammer is banned instantly. I am sure that members would not like to see, some of the stuff we have to deal with.Now some of these spammers now are getting very clever,they may post a few good posts.Then post hidden links in there postings for bad stuff, virus, porn, you named it.But forum software flags most of it to keep the members safe,so sometime new member might post,but think there post is not recorded. It has but just waiting to be approved by one of the admin,so just be patient thank you all.

Thanks for posting this, as I just posted a link to my own initial post and it was put on moderated status.
