    Default My replies don't appear?

    Hi,

    Sorry if this isn't the appropriate section for such a question, but whenever I post a reply, it says I have to wait until it's approved. However, it's been about a week or so and they haven't been approved. I don't know how else to inform the mods. Please help.

    Thank you.

    Do not post in the Community Forum, so you won't have this problem. The mods have dibs there.

    I think perhaps you have to have amassed 10 posts elsewhere before they appear in the community forum without prior approval?

    More discrimination on behalf of the mods. First age and now post counts???

    Well, I also posted a reply in the general discussion forum (the current listening thread), but that doesn't seem to have appeared either.

    They're obsessed with numbers.

    Sorry for the delay getting back in touch.

    The issue isn't the sub-forum. What happens is- if you're a new user and you give a VERY brief response, the posts go into Moderation Queue, because our system flags it as potential fluff that seeks to inflate a user's post-count.

    There ARE forum privileges once one gets to a certain post-count... privileges we'd rather NOT see exploited by $p@mmer$. So what happened to you is actually our system working the way it's designed to work.

    I've reviewed your other posts, and (however brief), I've moved them out of Moderation Queue.

    Apologies again, for the inconvenience.

    I would have assumed it's because you came from the opera forum.

    Ah, I see. Thanks.

    Well, I'll certainly try to make longer posts from now on, though it might prove to be quite difficult giving my experience. I'll definitely do my best though!
