How come sometimes when I go to post...

..it says soething like it wont post immediatly and is pending admin approval?

Its happen twice the past week.

The post themselves went even bad.One was ranting about dealing with Gov. programs and the other was asking for advice on my gf's b-day gift.Apparently neither was "approved" since I never saw them.

Actually I originally joined back in 2002 under a different name.Thanks anyway!

Like I said in my original post,my two unposted threads weren't controversial at the least.

One was about dealing with the gov. You see,my plant shut down and the state is sending us to college for 2 yrs.But there was so much paperwork and red tape to go through.I was basically griping about the over-complexity of something.

The other post was asking about recommendations for a video game for my gf's bday. I dont see how either violate anything.

And I checked spyware/virus' and I'm clean.

Many forums use a system that detects "trigger" words and the post waits for administrator approval. Does CamaroZ28.com use something like that?

I never understood people that postwhore... I mean a valued member is one that contributes to a site not one with a high post count...

I was wondering if there was a "trigger" word used somewhere.But then how can there be "Texans are P******" and "boob" threads but when I asked what video game to get my GF it gets blocked and a week later its still not posted.


Chris?Jason?Any random forum mod shed light on this please?It's not like it's a big deal or anything but I am curious about it at this point.

Moved to the proper forum.

We have certain trigger words that is to slow down spammers. It automatically puts threads/posts in a queue for review if the criteria is met with an account under a certain post count. We validate them a couple of times a day.
