I have two different posts that said "they need to be approved by a moderator before being posted"

How long do I have to wait? I have been waiting on one of them for over 12 hours, what's up? :cry:

I'm failing to see how keeping people from properly using the forums is a success, but oook. I mean, just because people are new doesn't mean their ability to post should be disabled, that's no way to welcome new people. I used to own a large forum, I would never dream of doing something like that. I mean, it would be better to just ban people right off the bat then to hamper everyones posting. Just remove the troupble makers from the start ya know...

I'm just saying you should try to make new members feel as welcome as possible is all =T

well if your have owned another forum then you would obviously know the annoyance of trollers....so i think this is a great feature to the customed members of RIU....although i didnt have to go throught it once your past the trial stage i think you will agree that this measure of prevention is right....or im just stoned!:joint::joint::peace:

I just started playing a few days before I signed up here, I think I'm ranked up to like level 32 or something. The reason I used COD4 as my username is because my internet nickname or 'handle' is very unique and it's VERY easy to find out who I am if I use it, so I just used the first thing that came to mind :mrgreen:

that's it, you're banned. :twisted: j/k.

some people get moderated, some don't. i'm not very computer smart so i'm not sure why. i know if your post count is low, not sure how low, and you post " hot links" (mmmmmm sausages) then they get moderated. it's then just a matter of a mod approving them. sometimes they slip by. i haven't found the "threads needing approval" page or i would spend more time there. when i do see them i approve them. i'm not sure how to approve an account though.

Hey, I posted a thread needing approval last night. The title is along the lines of first grow high power led's (lots of pics). I'd appreciate if someone could look into it, its been probably 12 hours, maybe a little more. Thanks!

Hey, I made my first post about 24 hours ago and I got the "needs approval" message. It was a new thread, in the plant problems forum with the subject "clones turning yellow/growing slow" or something to that effect.

I had links to pictures hosted on another site in the post (before I saw that I could upload pics directly to this site). Should I upload the pics to this site and repost the message or is it OK that I have them linked from another site?

Thanks!

Hi, I reposted my post with the picture links to this site instead of an outside one and I still got the "needs approval" message. Now I think I've got two of the same post waiting for approval, just with different picture links. I'm not sure how to get the original one with the old links out of the "approval queue".

Sorry for any problems I may have caused. :cry:

Yeah, try to get ahold of a mod.....your post ends up like that if you have too many links in it. You could try posting half of your pictures at first with the thread. Then reply to your own thread with the rest.
