I replied to a question in "general knife discussion" and a received a message that my reply would not be posted until reviewed by a Moderator. I have been able to post other replies in different sub forums. What am I missing, or is this normal for people that are new to this forum?

We have a spam review process that blocks some posts that it thinks might be spam. We check this "moderator queue" regularly and approve the honest posts that got caught up.

Thank you. I was replying to this thread:

I posted a link to the Koster makers sub forum. I don't think that is spam.

No biggie, was just curious.

Keep in mind it is software meaning they have some type of algorithm they have programmed. A short post with a direct link sometimes triggers a post that will be stashed until one of us hits a a couple of buttons and then once we select and read it send it on it's way.

I am sure it is frustrating to be caught up in it when all intentions were good. It is clunky, but it also does stop a lot of garbage that we would rather not see here or anyplace else in many cases.

Ok so I just approved two more of your posts.

I think that algorithm has something against ya big time.

No worries though, we will not hold that against you.

No.... no. I was more curious than frustrated. Thank you for taking the time to explain it to a FNG. I appreciate it.
