Now the forum posts are moderator approved? Really?

Why oh why did this happen?  Is the forum postings now hurting someone's feelings or something?  I just replied to a new post and was told the post had to be 'approved'.

If that is the case, well then it was fun but I'm out.  Ridiculous.

  • There are automatic checks for certain keywords and syntax. If the forum system detects something it doesn't like, then this happens. Like all automated systems, created by fallible humans, it's not 100% accurate, which is why it requires staff to then moderate and approve.  These forums are still new, over time, the filters will be tweaked to reduce the number of false positives.  Calm down, you aren't being targeted, the system applies to everyone.  FYI, Astaro.org had a similar system, it just never worked/triggered.
