View Full Version : "Post has to be approved by a moderator" - but only since the third post?

I hope I'm hitting the right category here...

I'm a little confused regarding post moderation. I registered in July and started posting yesterday.
I submitted my first two posts without problems. But since the third one I'm getting the message that the post has to be approved by a moderator first. But why didn't that happen for posts #1 and #2, only for post #3?
All posts were submitted to the same thread (madVR in the software player forum).
If it's some kind of spam protection it should be the other way around, #1 and #2 should be in need to be approved, and #3 and following should be free. :confused:

Edit: And why am I allowed to create new threads without moderation while I can't post in that specific thread? ^^;

Those posts got caught as false positive spam. They're approved now.

Thanks. :)

What do I need to consider when creating posts in order to avoid similar problems in the future?
