How long will review of new user posts continue?

Post by BAR_152 »

I found in the forum rules what appearently happens with my post or edit of a post.

Why does my post need to be approved?
The board administrator may have decided that posts in the forum you are posting to require review before submission. It is also possible that the administrator has placed you in a group of users whose posts require review before submission. Please contact the board administrator for further details.


I failed to find the PM feature or other way to contact the administrator so I put my question here...

For what period will this reviewing be the case?
Kind regards, Rob.

There's a minimum number of posts that will be moderated (I don't know the exact number now).

Primary reason is to keep this forum free of spam.

the first 10 postings are checked by moderators, and believe me that its needed.
We get a lot of spammers, I'm getting more then 15 new accounts a day of which more then 10 are spammers.

I fully understand the reason, I moderate on a modelling forum and this would be a fine approach for us too. So it was not a complaint, it is fine with me.

I just wanted to know if it can be influenced because the delay is inconvenient if you're not a spammer :wink: ...
Kind regards, Rob.
