    I wanted to know why every time I post something it takes a long time for it to show up or it never comes in at all is it just me who this happens to??

    All posts are moderated, and until an available moderator has a chance to review and approve or decline a post, no one can see it (except the original poster as a pending post.)

    If you post something too controversial, it will not be posted. The moderators have been either heavily editing posts or not allowing the posts to go through, if they deem them to be unworthy, for whatever reason. That is their prerogative, though I wish they would allow us to be adults.

    You have other options out there.

    oomis, if you want to debate with other women only and much less moderated, check out imamother. Its a great website for frum women with a ton of diversity.

    How come when I post some thing if I am logged in, the part of the post where it says your username is yellow? However, when I am not logged in, it is regular. Also, sometimes right after I post, the post shows up on the screen, but if I exit and then come back to it, my post is not there? Am I the only one?

    When you see a post in yellow, it means the post is pending moderator approval, and only you can see it while you are logged in — no one else. Once (and if) it is approved by an available moderator, it will no longer be yellow and anyone can see it (whether logged in or not.)

    Thanks, SJS, I am not really looking to debate with anyone. I am NEVER controversial 😉 (I will look up the site you mentioned, thanks – how do I get to it?).

    whoever it is, then s/he is moderator par excellence!!!!

    #686875

    Seriously, it’s not me.

    I don’t like to take credit falsely.

    The fooling around is mostly me, but there is a very good moderator on also right now, approving posts rapid fire.

    do moderator’s posts get moderated?

    Moderator’s posts are by definition moderate.

    Judging by the lack of response, it is not 42

    I did think so- Deep Thought does not have these limitations.

    Now you know why I live in the state of disillusionment =)

    It is very dead now over here. Is it because no one is on the CR or no mods are around?

    I don’t want to make a ruckus. I only wanted to know if its the great moderator’s fault that no posts are showing up or was it the great Members who were not posting. I’m sorry if I hurt your great ego.

    My bruised ego feels much better every time I read your posts.

    Yeah, the cr is dead. Maybe its cuz of the power outage in lakewood.

    Nothing I post, ever makes it through. The moderators squelch any honest conversation on any topic of intellectual weight. G-d forbid people here actually do some serious thinking about issues I guess.

    A few of my posts get through, but usually those end up edited; ah, remember the old days.

    Very funny!!!

    #686890

    for me the cr room is never dead, i check it once in a while, but i’m not waiting for people to post. All of those who are go find something to do! Sometimes though i am curious if someone responds to waht i wrote.

    Do people get banned altogether? Can one tell if that is the case?

    #686892

    if you are “blocked” it will show up under your screen name in previous posts. You can tell. You cant post, you can’t even access the coffee room at all, even to read the posts.

    just as an aside to all those who may doubt the moderation system on this form…anyone here remember when it broke here around Purim time? enough said.

    Can one be banned from the main YW news board, and not from the CR?
