As mentioned - it's nothing personal if your post goes for approval. The filters can be 'jumpy' - but when was the last time we saw a spam attack or profane post from a 'bot' on here.. I'm proud to say we are free of all that rubbish - and BeoWorld is all the better for it.

With the good things come the not-so-good things - but i think the good things far outweigh them

That said, when i get a free moment i'll look into the settings.

I am not alone! But I think all of the moderators hav been busy today. This site is always getting more professional but I am afraid the moderators are still all just enthusiasts. Personally I think this makes this a friendly and welcoming place but obviously we do sometimes take time to react!

Oh Peter, I had no idea it was you who was solely in charge of this.

Appreciate your input and your dedication, as always.

Take good care,

Both approved. It really is just the software - I left for work at 07-15 this morning and only got back at 20-45 so sorry for the wait.

Hi guys,

This post addresses the same issue, and thus it is intended for moderators action : I posted 2 posts today with pictures (in the thread "flash your B&O" on the general forum and the thread "Light-lamp" on Lifestyle forum).

For both, I was warned that my posts are waiting for a moderator approval. Is that because there are pics enclosed? Could the filter take into account who is posting?

So could you please guys approve my posts so they can appear in the threads?

Thank you very much,

Philippe

As said before, it is not us but the software - and I cannot see any reason why your post was moderated. The moderators will approve posts when they come up as long as there are no real problems so please be patient. There is no censoring of views and no conspiracy - just Microsoft software!

Just posted another comment on the Torben topic.....

Got this response but swear I watched my language and content. what is happening to this site?????

Come-on guys. This is not what I signed up for. If it is there because there is a risk of people feeling touchy, then one has to question if touchy sensitive people should be on a public debate forum. Cant take the heat......

On another note - no point in starting a new thread for this trivial question: In A Clockwork Orange film is the record player in the room of the lead character seen quite early on in the film (white) B&O by any chance. It would fit I guess as he does rob and therefore have loads of money to buy expensive stuff. In fact the whole film is littered with style icons...

Pretty sure it is a complete Beosytem 1200. Seem to remeber reading it on the old site.

It's not always about your posting specifically. I was put onto moderation because of the work *** in the title of the ***iest speakers thread I responded to.

I was born and bred in Scunthorpe funnily enough....

Graham, I have looked in the "moderation" folder and there is nothing currently awaiting approval.

no probs, I have a site myself and have the same issues sometimes. Is there a chance you could approve the Avant post?

Thanks
