Wiki New Member Post Approval Process

In case you're wondering why your posts are taking a little while to show up:

We love new members and most of the time, new members are here to learn, contribute and just be good citizens.

But.. sometimes people sign up here just to advertise, promote their products, or some other sort of black hat practice.

I know.. gasp!

For that reason, your first several posts will have to be approved before they show up on the forum.

Once the software sees that you are here for the right reason and you are NOT a leech just trying to game the system, you will be allowed to post at will without any pre-approval process.

We try to approve posts as quickly as possible but sometimes if it's during weekends, late evening or at night, it can take a little longer.

Be patient, let the process work and you'll be a full-fledged and approved member in no time

Great idea. I’m sure most newbies will understand.

At one time it was 10 posts before you got paroled. I'm not sure what it is now.

My first post ever

There was one member that, within a few posts wanted to connect with me, even talk on the phone. Might be a great person, but also hasn't posted since I told he or she I wasn't comfortable with that. Again, they might be fine people, but creating an account then going quickly to PMing a member trying to connect raises suspicions for me. Maybe some people are just freewheeling on the internet like that but it goes against web security 101.
