Re: causeway link bus
That won't work because the moderation period is time as well as post dependent. Posting 20 "test" messages in quick succession won't change the duration of probation. It's at least 24 hours no matter what. It could well be longer. In fact, posting a large number of repetitive messages in a short period of time may result in the script classifying a genuine member as a spam bot and the account will be terminated.
A member also has to maintain a rep score at 10 points or more. If rep falls below 10, it's back into moderation mode so don't post nonsense. You might end up getting points deducted.
Ok noted Mr Leongsam
Yes, last time I did suggest to new members that they should post 10 "test" messages in quick succession so that they can get through the moderation period faster. All I wanted to do was to encourage new members to continue their participation in
your forum and continue posting instead of giving up because their questions were not answered due to the delay, and they don't even know why their post didn't appear.
You posted the above to explain and I read and acknowledged it.
Your first 10 posts will be delayed due to moderation. Subsequent posts will all be immediate.
Oh I see. I thought it was something to do with iPhone. The suspense and delay in posting is not much fun when I'm so looking forward to the replies to my post. The suspense is killing me lol. Thanks for clarifying, investor
Thus this time, I
did not suggest to the new member that he should post 10 "test" messages in quick succession.
New member DREAMorACTION asked the question, "Why didn't my post appear?". I answered him because of the same good intention I stated above. New members don't know what happened to their post because the 'notification' message(about moderation) only appears for a while and disappears, many new members will miss that notification message.
That's
absolute rubbish.
You can post 100 messages and still be in moderation. In fact, you might end up being banned.
I already explained it to you in
THIS POST the last time you wrote the same
bullshit. Stop spreading fallacies. All you do is confuse new members.
You got angry because you thought/assumed that I was again telling the new members to post 10 "test" or meaningless messages,
which I didn't. That was why you, again but frustratedly this time, emphasized that a new member can post 100 messages and still be in moderation.
I specified "1st 10 messages" simply because that was so far the standard default from the system which we have observed(provided that a new member's messages are not classified as spam by the system, and that the 24 hour
"Time" criteria is met too, yes I got your message).
Bro, he is just being helpful.
as admin you need to provide guidance and be more polite.
thanks.
That's exactly what I did the first time round. I explained to him how moderation works and why posting 10 messages would not lift moderation.
However, a couple of months later, he repeats exactly the same falsehoods. He either has his own agenda or he didn't even bother to read my message. I see no reason why I should be polite given the circumstances.
After all my explanation above, you can still think that I have my own agenda, but most other members would know that your thought is absolute rubbish/bullshit(the same way you think of mine).
Try asking DREAMorACTION whether my answer to him has encouraged him to continue posting or the opposite.
DREAMorACTION thanked me didn't he? He's now happily participating in
your forum... No??
Moreover, I reposted his 1st post which everyone missed out, so that everyone can read it and help to reply. Please tell me what my intention/agenda is for that Einstein?
