Moderator has to review?

[name_m]Just[/name_m] posted in a thread & my post isn’t showing up - its saying a moderator has to review it before it will post. What’s the deal? Have I been flagged or is this a new standard or what? Annoying…

Was it a particularly long post? Other than that, I’m really not sure why it happens. It’s happened to me before and then I checked the thread 3 minutes later and there was my post.

Nope, wasn’t long or anything. It did contain a link though - but I’ve never had that problem before. Seriously irritating. I thought my computer messed up when I didn’t see my post show up so I wrote it out again & that’s when I saw the moderator review thing.
What the hell guys.

I haven’t seen anything about reviewing posts so I don’t know what’s happening there.

I’ve had that happen before when my post contained links. Some sites, the links make that come up. I guess those sites have something in their coding that marks it as spam for the site. Try finding the pic through a different site or saving the picture and importing it directly from your computer. Or, if it’s not a pic, try direct linking by using the little button that looks like a world. So it comes up like this

If none of that works, try removing the link or just trying again later.

Or, as mods, we can go into the admin panel and approve it :wink:

[name_f]Edit[/name_f]:: Mmk… it’s not working for some reason. I keep getting a 503 message.

This keeps happening to me when I respond to posts in the Announcements forum. Pretty frustrating.
