Moderators have to approve post?

I just posted and got a message that said something to the nature of "your post will not be visible until a moderator has approved it"

Just wanted to know if it's a new thing or it's just me?

I know if you want to post something on the events calendar it has to be moderator approved, but I don't know of anything else that does.

Ya, you probably just typed something that triggered it for moderation, certain words will do that if it something that may or may not be bad.

So... what was it?

^What he said^


There is a program set up that scans all content of the posts, certain words/links have certain number of points, of which there is a threshold for.
If it crosses the threshold it gets sent to the moderation que.


(Your post will be reviewed in the morning, and either approved or rejected depending on the reasons the filter triggered it - sometimes it gets it right, sometimes it gets it wrong)
