Reporting and Moderation

The filtering obviously has to involve a ratio/scoring principle. I've had long posts and short posts both immediately accepted as well as blocked. Both types have had lots of punctuation (I use it for emphasis and expression) and little punctuation, and still been both accepted and held for moderation. I've come to believe that very short sentences as in your one held up above are as problematic as very long, punctuation-rich ones. My guess is that the filter is really looking to pass very typical, ordinary English wording style and bounce all else.

Heh. My post just above was held for moderation as well. I slso notice that it carries the time it was released from jail, rather than the 0905 time it was originally posted. It's hard to figure out what might have caused it to be trapped. Maybe @joshl and me are 'chosen ones'.

Wrong. You didn't post it - you submitted it. So the time of actual posting seems right.

Got helled once again - in "Weather" it's veeeery frequent.
Who else perhaps got helled there? I've a suspicion the Heller doesn't like weather talking much*:)* -

If only "C" for "Celsius"?
A degree sign, of course, then a couple of hyphens - aka minuses, depending on the context, a plus this time...
No images - save a:yuck:smilie... -

And "approved" posts don't "show up": only the "new" blamba appears, but I couldn't see my post shown last in that thread from the board (being such) nor upped it the thread by a iota.

My weather post was just helled again!
I tried my best this time - almost pure text in plain English! No links, no nothing! What the heck!? -

And @ryszard's last post at 1325 wasn't held? It was full of numbers, punctuation, abbreviations and degree symbols. It seems there's something a bit odd or unstable about the spam filtering - unless it doesn't trap the Polish language.

I don't speak Polish, dzenkuye bardzo*:)*
A couple of your latest posts (including the above one) seems not to have shown up on the main page. What's wrong with you?

Maybe it all has something to do with finally getting the gold trophy badge. We'll see what happens with your posts as soon as you get a white one.

Nah.
My posts usually lift the thread up and are shown on the index page. Yours don't seem to be. Like this last one, too. -

Perhaps I'm being shunned... sigh...
Edited to add: although this post elevated to the top of the index...

The helling maching definitely doesn't like my Russian weather reports. Made in Brazil?

What!
A guy posts there in a Slavic language only (copypaste) - that goes with flying colours. Should I post in Chinese?

Approved posts are held for editing again. Is it normal?
It needs editing there: "childing" to "childish".

Yes. Spammers often post non-spam posts, then edit them to add spam links in an effort to "fool" spam filters. I've seen this on the forums many times. And so, all posts go through the spam filter even if it's an edited post that's been approved earlier.
