As a new member to these boards your post will NOT appear until one of our Moderators approves it."


What? I'm pretty sure I joined around 2 years ago . Will this post give me the same message? Lets see...

EDIT:

Weirdness! Do you have to have posted recently on the specific board for your posts to appear straight away? I just posted on the team requests forum. I've posted there before.

EDIT:

Oh, just occured to me that it may be to stop the team requests forum filling up with crap, but the message given isn't entirely accurate .

EDIT:

Yup, I didn't read the stickies . But still, it'd be less confusing and help me not post impulsively to find out why I am aparrently new to this forum, if the message told me about this new system .

Isn't it? Wasn't it? Marvellous!

Exeat and RPGGamer are the only moderators that pay that much attention to the team requests - the TR forum is a lot better now though, for their desired purpose of advertising for help. Really, if RPG and Exeat are both offline, it would take a while to get your post approved, it's just the way the TR forum has ended up unfortunately.

Just made an assumption... haven't seen many actual team requests since the regulation came in, but somehow some of the "mmorpg" and 2 liner team requests still seemed to get through . Most of them got locked but still, looks like it isnt working right , either that or someone validated them so we could get a laugh

Etcetera.

I do.

I stick to the policy of;
Is this a completely crap post, and would *I* flame it?
If the answer is a resounding "Yes" then I delete it
Otherwise, I leave it
