Hello, I recently rejoined the forum (it's been a while since my last vibes) and posted my first thread reply with no problem. My second reply was a list in response to Ken's post on what bands we might like to see - when I clicked "post", I saw something to the effect that my post was being held for moderation.

I've since been able to put up another reply that went right through with no moderation, but my list of requested bands remains unposted. Was it something I said, or just a glitch? If posts are rejected for whatever reason, do we ever find out why?

Guess I could just post again and see what happens...

I'm sure a Vibe Guide can explain the moderation workflow better than I can, but you're getting the n00b treatment. Please drop your pants, put on this blindfold, and wait for further instructions.

thanks, sounds like this could be fun

hmm, my earlier reply to this post disappeared.
It didn't say it was being held for moderation though; first it was there, but now it's gone...
Maybe I'll just stfu for a while and see what develops. Thanks for replying In A Silent Way!

Yep, n00b treatment, first certain # of posts need to be approved. If disappeared may have been inadvertently deleted when deleting the ton of spam posts per day.

I believe I was able to validate the posts to which you referred above.

Can he pull up his pants and take off his blindfold now?

I'm in no hurry really. Blindfolded and pantsless might be a nice way to spend the afternoon.

You're going to make a lot of friends real fast around here with that attitude.

Now that you've met JBetty and TEO, you may remove the blindfold. Please keep your pants down.

Go to the "Friends and Family..." thread and start reading from the beginning. Do not skip any pages. When you are finished, there will be a short quiz.
