When I try to post comments about half the time I get the “your comment will show up once it is approved” message. Yet they never show up once this is sent.
Futhermore these comments are completely respectful, contain no swearing and don’t breach the TOS at all.
Why is this happening so often to me? How can I get it to stop? Any advice is appreciated

    (1st) if you try editing your post (or comment) more than once, it tends to do that (go into a “pending approval” state).

    And if trying to repost a screenshot you saved from someone else’s post, I occasionally run into an issue where it says “Format Not Allowed” (and not talking about video) trying to repost it, which doesn’t make sense because I had saved the image from an existing forum thread.
    So if that happens I just take a new screenshot in my pics folder of that image, then the new image is of correct format.

    But (2nd), for you only being up here in forums for a month now, I must disagree with your assertion that all your comments are “completely respectful”. And so comments (or forum account in general) may have been flagged for extra scrutiny by the forum system. Even if technically not containing any swear words.

    It can also potentially happen if you are trying to comment or post too much in a short period of time

    Thanks for the information! That’s frustrating then. I guess I’ll have to copy my comments before I send them incase they get flagged and need to get reworded.
    If the system is so faulty that it flags “haha, good one.” Something needs to change. No way I can’t send that lol.

    If my account has been flagged is that a permanent thing?
