Test post..Do I need a moderator approval to post in this section?

No..ok then.


Why do I need moderator approval in the "Newb" section???

This seems quite the opposite of how things should be organized. I mean, the new guys should be limited to the new section right? Not have their posts take days to show up there..and only there.

This discourages proper use of the message boards. New users may be inclined to ask questions elsewhere to avoid waiting precious days for their posts to be approved.

If you put in a link or anything you will be moderated to prevent spam.

Ah, that must be why. I listed the parts I am thinking about buying for my system, and asked for constructive criticism.

Hopefully it will be approved soooon!

Usually it is either link or certain words/phrases that cause a post to be moderated. Also having under 5 posts is another thing that may cause your post to be moderated.

Don't feel like you are being picked on, I have had to approve a post by a senior member with over 3000 posts and the other week I had to approve a post of another moderator.

This system is one of the worst I have ever seen very unfriendly to new members Oh well I can read I guess. I wont bother trying to post anymore too much trouble to wait for a post to show also old news by the time approved. Wouldn't be an issue if it was approved or not quickly.

If you dont put a link, it wont be moderated...

Usually posts are approved within hours. People dont get payed to do this.

Thanks for the reply I actually tried posting earlier today & there was no link I basicly just said I had good luck buying a product that was being talked about. I am a mod & admin on other boards so I do understand security. I registered because I received some helpful info from searching thru post while trying to figure out which OBDII scanner to buy.

Another post waiting for moderation with no link Oh well Thanks for reply

these keep coming through so something is going on.

I dont moderate posts, so I dunno.

But since this is a CarPC forum and not a medical emergency forum, chances are your problem isnt mission critical enough that a 1 day wait would kill you.

ummmm......Im a newbe and my post was instantly posted. Does that mean Im special?

mcgyver210

I guess so since hardly any of mine have showed up even waiting so I will just read I guess. I had thought this would be a good place to learn some new things but I even seen a spammer get to post so must be just me.

I don't even remember what I posted anyway now.
