So that we can provide faster and better support, this forum (the "Public Suggestion Box") has been retired. Instead, please send any suggestions you have to us using the official website contact form.

This allows us to streamline our support system so that we can get to your message much faster. Instead of our support staff having to check three different places (support forum, suggestion box, and contact form messages), they know can respond to all message through one method, with that one method being the official website contact form.

I have heard some reports from members with more than 10 posts who are having their posts held for moderation. If that is happening to you, please post a reply here.

That will serve two purposes. Not only will it help alert me to the issue you think you are having, but it will let me see a test case to debug it. In other words, I will be able to see your reply to this post in the moderation queue. Then I can debug why it was put there.

Good day. I hope you can help resolve this issue, as it causes me a warning because I was said to bumb my reviews by replying to them when nobody else had. This wasn't stated as a fault in the guidelines, so I didn't expect the warning at all.

I can see that your posts were being held for moderation because for some reason you were in the Newly Registered usergroup. Typically, one would be automatically removed from that group after making a certain number of posts. I'm not sure if a bug caused you to not be removed, or if some kind of bug or human error caused you to somehow be errounously put back into the usergroup after being automatically removed from it. Either way, I have just now removed you from the Newly Registered group to fix it. Sorry for the trouble, and thank you for bringing this to my attention.

From the forum rules: Posting requests in other topics for other members to view your review/topic or comment on your review/topic is not allowed.

Here is a link to the full rules: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=24783

It says in other topics, but I think the general principle that requesting comments is not allowed still applies. Anyway, I am glad that the issue of your posts being held has been resolved.
This post was brought to you by the word "specifically".

Hi. Good day! I have been waiting for more than a month for my comments on other reviews to be approved. I don't know if that is because of my level or what. But I'm hoping you can look further into my account so that I'll know and understand why it is like that. Thank you so much! More power!

Ya please, this matter bothering me every time i made a review on the BOTD on the site it tells me it wait for a moderate to review but it never. Yesterday i am sure i post a review and today i got disqualified.. And when i appeal the moderate says he can't find my post
I even shared the wrong comment on LinkedIn instead of the right one in the appeal from confusing and i did comment
Today i post a review and it tells me the same words what i will do if it happens again i am really sad and frustrated
I love this site, i honesty love reading books.. sorry, it also affect my score i hope you answer me with a solution even this post is on hold

Hi.

Thank you for reaching out. This happened because you were still in the Newly registered users usergroup. I've just now removed you from that usergroup.

Thank you.

Hi.

Thank you for reaching out. This may be happening because you're fairly new to the forum. You just joined a few weeks ago and has only made 25 approved posts. If this problem persists, please let me know.

Thank you.

Hi,
My posts are being held for a moderator's approval only on BOTM forums, all my other posts go through directly without pending in the other forums. I was wondering if this is normal for these forums or is related to my account.
