    Why do we have to wait to see our posts?

    Ive been told a few times today that a new post that I've made is a duplicate and then not seen the post appear and then a few times had my post repeated 3 times when I only wrote it once and now I'm being told that my post is going to be reviewed by moderators before it'll be posted?

    What is going on today?
    "We're all very different people. We're not Watusi, we're not Spartans, we're Americans. With a capital "A", huh? And you know what that means? Do you? That means that our forefathers were kicked out of every decent country in the world. We are the wretched refuse. We're the underdog. We're mutts."

    I guess it would be if it were organized, instead it's just rather confusing.

    Is it not just posts in the school club, or whatever it's called?

    I noticed today that when I submitted a post it was shaded blue, and didn't appear on the thread until sometime later.

    Yeh, posts in "School Talk" go straight to the mods....we review and approve or disapprove.

    From School Talk Heading:
    Post your questions about specific schools here. Please note this area is NOT for "name and shame" or otherwise venting about a school that you feel wronged by. All posts are subject to moderation before publishing. Please see forum rules for further information.

    As far as "organized" goes, please remember that moderation is no one's full time job. We all volunteer.

    My post was deleted. Why? Who?

    Was it off topic, like this one?:

    If it was in "School Talk" it wasn't deleted jonny, but rather 'not approved.'

    But, I don't know what post you're talking about. I don't see anything deleted in this thread.

    No, it was a reply to your post. This one:

    You can really spot the "latest post" users here. As clearly stated on the School Talk sub-forum description, all posts and threads made in this section are subject to moderation. This is an attempt to have a controlled attempt at the hitherto problematic TEFL Watch style of content, and may even extend the remit further down the line, to include specific complaints, however we are taking no chances and are not prepared to have this as a live unmoderated section. We believe that this is the best compromise between allowing the airing of free and frank discussion of schools, and the disgraceful, and ultimately destructive format of TEFL Watch (and indeed my own Thai School watch format). We hope that by applying some simple rules and by ensuring that sensitive discussions on schools are carefully controlled we may find some kind of happy medium which represents the interests of all within the Thailand TEFL business.

    I can understand that, it's just that I was noticing it on other posts as well. I was wondering if the moderating program had leaked over into the other threads.

    That seems rather strange as EVERY other deleted post leaves a trail IE; an option to "undelete," yet I see no deleted posts on this thread.

    Maybe it's my screen.

    It's not a program it's a built-in function which is set on a per forum basis, if I haven't switched it on a given forum, it won't happen.... I find it highly unlikely that it will have "leaked", and I certainly have no intention of implementing it on any other existing forum.
