Hi all! I’m Populous from the spanish forum and I’ve a little question for you…
Many times when I write a message it’s not published inmediately and a message in the body of the post says “the message is awaiting approval by a moderator.” ESPERANDO APROBACION in spanish language.
Which is the reason? This is not the first time that it occurs! Look at the attached file…
After posting it, I’ve posted several messages after it and they all have been automatically visible but not the first one, and I don’t know the reason!
I’m not a spammer and the message is not spam…
Thank you for your assistance and sorry for my poor and forgotten english…
It is an automated anti-SPAM function. It can be triggered from various things, like certain Keywords or links. I see one of those posts mentions Ad-Aware, that is probably what triggered it on that topic.
You don’t have to get approved by a full-fledged Mod, one of the Ubers can do it also. But I’m not sure if they get direct notices about them or not, and since this is posted in a non-english section, they might not happen across it normally…so if it sits there in quarantine for too long, maybe PM one of the Mods or Uberevangelists about it.
I deleted it for the reasons discussed here in this thread that it was actually classed as advertising ( spam ), i did try to send you a pm about it but the weather is so bad here tonight and my internet keeps going down.
