Moderator Approval?
Sometimes when posting I get the message below, while other times the post goes right up. And frequently when the message is displayed, the post ends up not showing up.
Thanks
Thank you for posting! Your post will not be visible until a moderator has approved it for posting. You will now be taken back to the forum. If you opted to post a poll, you will now be allowed to do so.
Does anyone know why this occurs?Thanks

Mark,
It's primarily a consequence of the site's anti-spam software. New users are frequently tagged as suspect, especially when there is a URL of any sort in the post. As chrunck mentions, some forums are defaulted to requiring approval, but I'm pretty sure that only the 'how-to' sections fall under that heading.
It's not you--it's us. We try to get posts approved within a few hours, depending on when moderators are online, but if something goes for a day or two and hasn't yet been approved, please feel free to contact any of the site staff via PM or the 'Contact us' over on the left sidebar.
Happy motoring!

I just had another weird experience. I tried to post pics in the Light Coffee Owner thread that were pics that I had posted in the photo thread. When I saw the owner thread, I wanted to use them, again, but the site wouldn't let me, saying that I had already posted them in another thread. That is so strange.
I belong to another forum that seems to use the same platform, but I never run into these issues, over there.
