Its not automatic, it happens when a moderator sees a few of your posts and decides that you are a genuine poster and not a spammer.  

Theres heaps of discussions about the benefits of pre-publish moderation (which is whats happening) vs post-publish moderation, and DNN has decided a long time ago to keep things the way they are.. both methods have drawbacks and benefits.  Theres always going to be someone who is unhappy!

JK,

I understand the reasoning behind it but obviously there are some problems with the system.  I have been a member since the day the forum first started and the main reason that I do not post more often is because it is so difficult to do so.  I think 35 posts and 3 + years of membership would prove I am not a spammer.

Bill, you must agree that 37 posts in 1353 days (you registered on 1/15/2005) is not a whole lot. In fact, its averaging 1 post every 37 days. Yes there is a system, but its a manual system, for obvious reasons. Apparently you are a hard one to catch for any given moderator (more than 20 general moderators) on this site. In fact.. honestly.. i've never seen a thread you've been active in before this one (which just proves that i dont read everything....)

What i dont understand is where people get the idea that we have an active policy to make their lives miserable.

Also (might be unrelated for some people) I think there is a forums bug whereby we get the message that the post needs to be moderated, however if we go back to the post and refresh the browser we note that the post has been entered immediately. I get this behaviour almost all the time, not sure if it can be confirmed elsewhere?

I've never really worried about it too much though (although looking at the number of posts I've made, maybe I should be )...
