I'm just curious if anyone else's comments are being moderated! I've had a few comments being moderated and fairly quickly being approved by Mark which I thank you for Mark, this started around Friday I believe then this morning my blog post also went through moderation hummm I'm just wondering if I am the only one having this issue .......
You're not the only one. It happens from time to time. It's automated and dynamically gets more sensitive at times so there might be suspicious things that are happening and it's trying to compensate. I am trying to approve them as soon as possible so I apologize for any delay. With any automated system it's going to get false positives at times. You've done nothing wrong. So don't worry! Hopefully that will clear up soon and we'll be back to normal.

Hi Mark
I am unable to post my daily pledge it says i am being moderated.
please advise if I have done something wrong in my postings. I am trying to stay on my toes when posting and giving positive encouraging advice, I am DOF 6 here and hanging on.... thanks for looking into this. Ginny

You're able to post it just doesn't show until I approve it. It's happening automatically and you've done nothing wrong. It's being looked into and hopefully will be fixed so it's not so sensitive.

It happened to me too. I think it's a good thing to keep everyone feeling safe to come here without fear of judgement or seeing offensive comments.
It made me double check myself, which is always a good thing even when I haven't gone over the line. Always good to stay on my toes when communicating with others!

Yes we aim to keep out spammers so we watch new members a bit more closely. But yes helping everyone feel safe here is important while still having real conversations is a goal. Offensive comments are fairly uncommon fortunately! As MarilynH some comments are getting flagged that shouldn't be. sweetplt It started being more aggressive on Thursday, hopefully I'll find out what changed on Thursday.
Certainly it's good be mindful when communicating others who are strangers. At the same time we want people to be real. It's a delicate thing. I always have thought that being aware is important. If you're "aware", you're winning.

It's a glitch. The automated system is just sensitive at the moment. You should be able to post. Some posts just might need approval before they're viewable but i'm approving them as soon as I see them.

Thanks, Mark!
Add me to the list, Marilyn. I had never seen it before the last couple of days.
It just happened again again hopefully the glitch will be fixed soon.....
I've had a couple put in a moderated queue including the blog entry for today that I just wrote. Weird little glitch it is.

Can someone remind me how to tag Mark? He told us a trick to use and I can't find it.
@"mark" should bring me up in the pop-up.
Mark
Thanks. I had the asterisk stuck in my head!
