Answered Post awaiting for confirmation from moderator.

Hey there. I just made post on a thread and it says "This message is awaiting moderator approval, and is invisible to normal visitors.". What does this mean and how long would I have to wait for approval?
 
My post says it is waiting for moderator approval, what does that mean?
New members have their content go through a filter which puts it into a moderation queue. A Staff member has to manually review any posts flagged by this system - which can happen due to certain keywords, phrases, or spambot behaviors. As this is a manual process it can take time for content in the queue to be reviewed.

This process is manual so it can take from a few minutes to a few hours, depending on Staff availability.
