I've registered! Why is my post moderated?

[BobR]

No doubt you noticed that your first post to the forum said it was waiting for approval from a moderator (probably me!) Rest assured this is only the final step in the security vetting. First posts are moderated to prevent sneaky spammer types from getting an account and then spamming the forums immediately. Once your first post appears, you'll be able to post immediately to the forums. If you'd like to respond to several other posts while waiting for your first moderation approval, go right ahead. Your other posts will appear as soon as the moderator says okay on that first one.
