    why is what i attempted to post not reflecting on the thread? some really fast message popped up and said something about a moderator and approval. what is that about?

    When you are new to the site or the post seems like spam, it requires approval. Nothing against you or your post but SPAM is just plain YUCK!

    there is a spam filter, that tries to filter out spam bots that want to sell viagra and stuff. This filter occasionally catches normal messages as well, and I go through all that is catched and approve the valid messages. If this was not in place, there would be spam all over the place. Regardless, we need to find a better filter.

    for the record mr/mrs. moderator's, i am not a spammer. i surf locally and have interest in adding intelligent content to this board. i am neither selling or promoting anything.

    we know. it is just a program that does the filtering based on content of the message...
