Default Has Anyone Else Found This With Their Posts?

Hi!

I just wondered if anyone else had had this experience. I'm pretty new to the forum, and for a while, my posts would go into "hold" after I posted them because I was in moderation. Then, my posts started appearing, so I guessed that meant I was out of moderation. I still see my old posts; however, my new ones aren't appearing after I write them. It's almost like I came out of moderation and went back in? I haven't written anything exciting or controversial, so am I doing something wrong in my posting? Has anyone else had this experience? (I guess I'm not sure if this post will even appear.) Anyway, thank you for any advise!

Ace

Ace, your posts all just appeared as I just approved them. While you are moderated (which has not changed) your posts go into holding until they can be checked and then released on to the forum. During this period no-one other than moderators and administrators can see what you have written. Depending on the time frame in which your posts are approved will be the delay in writing them and then seeing them on the forum. Sometimes that could be instantaneous if a moderator is online and working or it could be a few days until we get to all the posts...remember there are lots of new members.

Be patient as if you continue to post properly you will be taken out of moderation and allowed to post freely though your posting will still be monitored.

Default Thanks, Nicolette!

Thank you for explaining that. I think that my post that came up so quickly must have occurred when a moderator happened to be there to check it right away. Anyway, I didn't mind still being in moderation; I just wanted to make sure that I hadn't done something wrong without realizing it.
Thanks again!

Ace
