I attempted to make a post to a thread last night which would have been my first post. I got a message telling me that it had to be approved by a mod before posting. Does that happen every time or is it just the first post that I make to be sure I'm not a spammer?

Spike, I am glad POA keeps the bots at bay. But I am curious.... how many botposts does POA get a day or week or whatever the relevant length of time is?

Thanks for the welcome. I lurked a lot a year or so ago but was reintroduced by Dr. Bruce last night from the red board.
I shot an email via the contact us link at the bottom of e page early this morning and just tried to post the same thing from last night and still no luck.
Frustrating trying to help someone out on the maintenance forum with a link to an autopilot manual and the board won't let you post.
I wonder how many new members you lose from frustration never to return with that policy?

This is the only web board that I have been on that my e-mall address has not been given out to spammers.

I am not the best one to ask, but I know that before we implemented the modified registration procedures, we had a crap-ton of them... like, dozens in a day.
Nope. I can only post in this forum. I'm trying to post in the thread on testing the piper autopilot in the maintenance forum and keep getting a message that my post has to be approved by a moderator.

You show as a registered user, but the posts were indeed in the moderate queue. It was not obvious until you said something. I approved them.
The reason is that you included links in the posts. Until you reach a certain number of posts, posting links will require that those posts be moderated. Yet another unfortunate result of the spam aholes.
If you have further problems, post back here & I'll check further into it.
