If you are getting "This post is waiting for approval"
. . . it is because you registered ever-so-slightly before the forum software was configured. That's my fault. I posted the URL over on Bugaloo, went off and made tea, remembered (oh damn!) to turn off a couple of settings. And then I immediately corrected those.
If you are getting that message, you have two options. You could keep using that account (which will both you and me nuts) or you could forget about it and start a new one. No new accounts get the "This post is waiting for approval" delay.
That delay is built in as an anti-troll measure, really. Once someone gains the trust of the community it gets lifted. Typically after 40 posts (that may be the default). Otherwise someone could simply register and immediately start posting Justin Beeeeeber pictures.
But since these are all test accounts, no great loss, right?
Meanwhile, I'll "approve" anything I see that is pending.
Once we have every Swamper on board over here, we can consider what to do about leaving registration turned ON. I'm all for it (for now) unless it starts to become a problem.

ALSO:
I'd like to leave this phpBB forum in a "beta testing" stage for a day or two before I screw with connecting older databases to it. Couple of reasons. One, I am pretty sure vBulletin's brilliant new vb5 software did something to the databases to "customize" them for vb5 and I'm going to have to see if I can roll them back (and then merge them) to undo whatever damage vb5 did.
And . . . I'd really like you guys to use this as you normally would for a day or two so I can observe the software and server tolerance. So far so good but I want to see how it handles a typical day at The Swamp.

Not to worry, unlike Original Swamp, your boy Zlax has posting priviledges here.

Re: If you are getting "This post is waiting for approval"
well, not quite immediately. this was my fault. scottie was on the phone with me, and he was distracted by my yammering for several minutes before correcting these settings. this moderation requirement affected the first test account i created, but not the second.admin wrote:. . . it is because you registered ever-so-slightly before the forum software was configured.

let's see if i can post w/o moderation under this name.

Re: If you are getting "This post is waiting for approval"
yeah, still affecting howard test (one) account; not affecting howard test2. glad to see i still have the ability to fuck things up, even if ever so slightly. again, i say kill that other howard account. fucking kill it in its sleep, like it was the govenor of woodbury.

If you don't mind, try "howard test" again.

Re: If you are getting "This post is waiting for approval"
Heh.
Okay, try it one more time please.

Re: If you are getting "This post is waiting for approval"
again, i say, it ain't worth the aggravation. it works fine for all subsequent users; just two, maybe three users who registered within that tiny time frame (mine, rex and keg).
kill me. please kill this account.
this <POST REVIEW--At least one new post has been made to this topic. You may wish to review your post in light of this.> feature is very cool

Re: If you are getting "This post is waiting for approval"
ok, trying it again. if this fails, you kill me, deal?
Re: If you are getting "This post is waiting for approval"
I haven't seen any issues on my end (last night or today).
My only fear of death is coming back to this b1tch reincarnated
Re: If you are getting "This post is waiting for approval"
Dammit. The settings are all correct. But it goes back to what we talked about last night. The account was registered in that brief little window between the forum going live and the final adjustments.
That's my fault for posting the URL a bit prematurely. Hey, I was tired and thought it was ready; it was a long day with this thing!
Anyway. If ANYONE experiences the "waiting for approval" message, please report it straightaway. Thanks.

Re: If you are getting "This post is waiting for approval"
please, don't worry. blame the code (wherein this teeny tiny problem inevitably lies) and move on. bigger fish to fry, which thus far are sizzling beautifully!

It worked much better in a fantasy
Imagination's one thing
That comes easy to me
'Cause this is nothing else if not unreal
When I pretend to touch you
You pretend to feel
Passion is no ordinary word
Passion is no ordinary word
Passion is no ordinary word
Ain't manufactured
Or just another sound
That you hear at night
They got new idols for the screen to day
Although they make a lot of noises
They got nothing to say
I try to look amazed, but it's an act
The movie may be new
But it's the same sound track
Passion is no ordinary word
Passion is no ordinary word
Passion is no ordinary word
Ain't manufactured
Or just another sound
That you hear at night
Say, how's it feel
Real useless, ain't it
Wait until it bites, right down inside you
The world is easy when you' just playin' around with it
Every thing's a thrill
And every girl's a kill
And then it gets unreal
And then you can't feel any thing
You can't feel anything
An object of desire you don't desire to be
I bet the shop window dummies
Give in just as easily
I try to stop, but have to make you drop down to the floor
Moaning in the darkness
As we fake some more

Re: If you are getting "This post is waiting for approval"
Glad that you where finally able to get in Scottie, please let me know if I can be of any additional help.
Did you see that ludicrous display last night?
Re: If you are getting "This post is waiting for approval"
I'm good, thanks. I'll let you know when I'm done. After that, I'll hand it all over.
Re: If you are getting "This post is waiting for approval"
trying once more, just for the fuck of it, to see if this account still demands moderation when posting.

Re: If you are getting "This post is waiting for approval"
No new accounts registered (starting Monday) have got that notification, right?
If that's the case, I'll unsticky this thread. Although I'll give it until tomorrow morning, just to be sure.
