Moderator approval

you must give the information in such a way that it satisfies the person who is asking. You must also avoid plagiarism and must create your own content.
You're joking, right? :-)

The only two things a person has to do to get "approved" is to (1) follow forum rules and (2) wait until a moderator has the time to approve their account.

Hello everyone. Just a quick message to try getting approved. I started a new thread a few ours ago to ask some advice but it's not showing yet. Thank you in advance ! 😊👍
 
Hello, I have a similar situation to OP--been reading tips on the forums for a while but haven't actually needed to post until a few days ago. I'm trying to post and message people but it keeps wanting to wait for moderator approval.

Are there any steps I need to take to be approved?

Thank you!

As your post is showing here I think you've now been approved.

There may be a second stage approval required for starting a new thread (I don't know) but I'm fairly sure once a post is approved you're OK to post again.

The main thing to remember is that the moderators aren't paid and have their own lives to live. So sometimes approval might take a while, IMO it's usually remarkably quick!

You are quite right. Approval is complete.
 
Gosh - I've been seeking other people's approval my whole life. Good to know I am not alone ;-)

Hi there, you are approved...
 
Hi Footski,

I am in the same situation as Jon and would like to PM a member to avoid resurrecting an old thread. Would you mind approving me so I can reach out to them? Thanks!

@Footski - My account is awaiting approval. Please Help. Thanks in advance.
Hello, I take it this is the official approval thread?

How does it work? Do I post here first and wait? Because I think I broke the rules--I made a thread without approval.
 
It depends on how often the Mods check in. You have been approved. Enjoy the site.
 
Please also approve me for private messages. Thanks!
