I did a thank you reply to my post but it's not showing up....does a moderator or admin person review first?

Disregard - I see my response now!

Yes, sorry about that! Everyone who joins has the first 5 posts they make reveiwed by an admin. The reason for this is primarily to prevent spammers from signing up and going to town on all the forums As you could imagine if we didnt have it that way all of us moderators would be here for the next hundred years cleaning up the spam!

On a lesser note, as this almost never happens, its done to protect the membership from someone who(sadly) might want to come on here to insult people or cause trouble. Its only happened less than a handful of times since I've been here, and thats going on four years now.. but sadly some people are not nice to those with mental health issues.

Does that make sense to you? Keep posting! Welcome!
