Moderation

What are the criteria that results in a post being flagged for moderation before posting?
Only curious as one of my posts got flagged for this and others didn't.

I am guessing that it is to do with the number of pictures? I had issues with the first one posting pictures (every time I typed into the IMG URL box, the box disappeared (something most likely to do with the "parsererror (SyntaxError: Unexpected token < in JSON at position 0)" error on my screen) so there are probably a lot of empty URLs in the IMG fields on that post....

Anyways....nice to be back causing agro for the moderators first thing in the morning!

Sometimes it is just a false positive from the forum software.
Speak to an admin and they can sort it out for you.

Cheers. Who are the admins?

Almost certainly a false positive as has been said.

Can someone release it from the tar pit?

I’m guess in iPhone-scroll-flag - esp if multiple images and rapid scrolling is involved.

No - from my PC

I meant someone might have flagged it for some reason. But the false positive “you’re a spammer” may have kicked in.

I usually get the “you’re a spanner” flag...

Yep, it was just a false positive from the automated is-it-or-isn't-it spam plugin. I've marked your account as "verified", which will bypass that completely from now on.

Do you need me to release the post, or have you had a second go?

Crikey! The responsibility of being verified! I was verified for a while on Twitter till I offended some people....
