Ditto.

And it'll be great to have Chrono, Elvis & Wicky as new Mods. You can count my vote for them in advance.:)

Three women on board? I'm all for that.:D

fortunato 12-22-2011 09:28 PM

I certainly wouldn't mind helping either. Count me in if you need another person.

neverending 12-22-2011 10:52 PM

The problem is the only one's who can make new mods are the same admins who are currently ignoring us...

TheWickerFan 12-23-2011 03:05 AM

El Gato asked for examples of posts that have been stopped to await approval. Does anyone remember any?

The one that Ferox did with the recipe in it. I believe roshiq had a few that were stopped.

roshiq 12-23-2011 07:29 AM

Just happened again in last seen movie thread:(

I'm for getting rid of shitty anti-SPAM freeware and just getting more mods.

ZombieDrone 12-23-2011 12:41 PM

Dang it!

Darn thing's happened to me for the second time after I had written something I really looked forward to getting a response from.

:(

I must admit though, it'll be funny if I have to wait to get this approved.

ZombieDrone 12-23-2011 12:47 PM

I have had three attempts to get said thread I wrote on Modern Horror and each time it was sent away for moderation. Perhaps there's a trend.

So :p with rules for the moment. I'll be cheeky and post here.

I'm considering buying Suspiria on Blu Ray but it's exactly the same (besides the obvious) of a copy I already have on DVD.

I'd like to have this film in HD because of the potential the film could have on the format (what with it's infamy to do with colour and sound)

But with it being otherwise the same (special features and all) to what I have on DVD, is it worth splashing out on?

Opinions please, especially from those who have a Blu Ray copy.

I'm guessing it just randomly does it to catch out spam posts.

Yes it's the obviously better solution to the problem. I don't think I've been on any boards where this has been implemented because it doesn't do anything but fuck the board up.

ZombieDrone 12-23-2011 03:02 PM

I've tried to repost the same thing several times (hopefully the mods won't be mad at me) and each time it's been sent for approval.

There's some sort of connection, but I'm not sure what.

cheebacheeba 12-23-2011 05:24 PM

Great, I just posted a thread that was meant for before Christmas, doubt it'll be done by then...

I just had a short post added to the mod queue in the random thread-If it isn't random then I must have used a "suspicious" word which is worrying so I hope it is indeed random.

ferretchucker 12-24-2011 11:05 AM

Seems to be happening to roughly 30% of my posts lately. Am I a threat to HDC?!

You should have thought twice before posting a pic of your hair, young man. ;)

Looks like it's gonna be permanent.

TheWickerFan 12-30-2011 09:28 AM

I've had some success contacting El Gato. He said he needs examples of posts that have been stopped and are awaiting approval. A moderator needs to do that.

I posted a few examples in this thread - Did that help?

Here's a couple more:

_____V_____ 12-30-2011 09:38 AM

Dunno about the first one, but your bicep is deemed TOO sexy, so it was sent to the moderation queue, lest it would cause a few faint-falls around the forums. ;)

Seriously though, those posts have already been approved by a moderator so ElGato can't find anything wrong with them. He needs examples of posts by regular members which haven't been approved yet.

I just PMed a couple to him, without approving them.

ChronoGrl 12-31-2011 07:23 AM

Ohhhhhhh - I understand the Ask now. Thanks! :)

ChronoGrl 01-01-2012 07:43 PM

I just got the warning 3 posts in a row. :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

neverending 01-01-2012 08:24 PM

It's probably your new avatar...

fortunato 01-01-2012 09:42 PM

I replied to Mothman's thread a couple of days ago and it still hasn't shown up.

TheWickerFan 01-02-2012 04:13 AM

Come on El Gato!!

We have left your post and Newb's post in "Netflix Gems" unapproved, and reported them to ElGato (an admin) who wanted examples of posts from regular members which were getting diverted to the moderation queue.

So far, he hasn't been online to see them. Could be New Year's hangovers.

EDIT - Looks like someone has approved both posts. Now El Gato won't find anything wrong with them. Oh well...

TheWickerFan 01-02-2012 05:27 AM

I have a post in line at the moment, you can keep that.

Maybe shoot a PM to all the mods not to approve any posts of mine that get stopped.

neverending 01-02-2012 05:43 AM

Sorry V- I forgot all about it.

I was wondering if that was the case... Quick! Someone post some porn so we can test this out!!! Newb?? ;)



FYI - Feel free to "hold" my posts if it helps.

Ah, I see. I didn't realize that. Yeah, feel free to hold on to another post if it'll help sort all this out.

newb 01-02-2012 05:45 PM

ALL my post are much too important to hold........they must all be released immediately.


also....check out this video....it's very good---> http://www.horror.com/forum/showthread.php?t=59844

Fearonsarms 01-03-2012 05:03 AM

This is a good example of a post to send to el gato if any of the mods can do it as I'm not sure what happened here but I guess it's waiting to be approved.
