This is a dumb question and off subject,but could someone tell me what a moderator is?When you go to post a message on here it says that it won't be posted until it's read by a moderator,please explain to me,a dummy!

All messages posted are queued to the server that runs the forum software. Several times a day either myself or 307 check those queued messages, read over them and then send them up to the forum where they can be publically viewed.

We have the ability to edit the content of those posts and delete them altogether if we wish. In which case they will never show up here on the forum.

I can say that I have never disapproved a post yet, but there are circumstances where we will. Such as; extreme profanity, posters publically berating other online resellers, or posters berating other forum users.

So far to my knowledge, we have not had any problems with the almost 2000 posts in the last 4 months! This forum is made up of a great bunch of people and I think we help a lot of folks here.
