    Default What does this mean

    While I was posting a reply, I got this message -
    Thank you for posting! Your post will not be visible until a moderator has approved it for posting. You will now be taken back to the forum. If you opted to post a poll, you will now be allowed to do so.

    Are others also receiving this message?

    ya i too got the same problem couple of times. That's why I always copy my post before submitting. That's something weird "moderator approving". Waiting for reply frm admin.

    Ya. We too get it sometimes. There as add on called akismat for Vbulletin. It automatically divert the so called spam posts to moderation. Your post will re appear once admin approves it.

    But I didn't post any spam or anything like that. I was just replying to thread Going for green hdd.

    Do not worry, it some times happens. Just wait for the Parminder to approve it if it not a spam.

    This happens sometimes and only sometimes - especially if there are external links.

    Post will be approved as said by administrators.

    Vignesh,
    It does not necessarily mean that you are spamming.. The automated system we use is not anywhere near perfect and it does make a lot of mistakes but on the other hand spam does not get posted on the forum so its not a win win thing its more like win win and lose some.. Good posts some times wrongly get flagged.. not just you some very senior members especially essbebe's posts tend to go into moderation very often for some reason that I cannot understand.

    As soon as there is a better option we can then move on to that but even that wont be perfect so please accept my apologies for any inconvenience caused and be assured that anything that goes into moderation is looked into atleast twice every day and some times even more and all genuine posts cleared.

    We do get atleast 40-50 spam posts and it would make an ugly mess if we didn't have this add on.

    I think external links are the main reason. Anything from tinypic to websites gets "filtered" - sometimes wrongly.

    Yes that right but this post : http://www.indiabroadband.net/deskto...tml#post280728 (Going for Green HDD)
    also went into moderation even when the link was internal.

    I have no idea how it works...

    If your post goes into moderation please do not post it again as the same content will keep on going into moderation again and again...

    Perhaps there would be a remedy for this problem. But still to stop spamming, this add on called akismat is necessary.

    Sorry, I thought that posting it the 2nd time will clear the problem. I won't do that again.
