      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*:)*

        Too many abbreviations perhaps?

          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?😉

                              I noticed that ... I think probably not enough recognizable words.

                                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.

                                        The post in question was edited by myself - held in that way. Now I can't see the edit took place, and the editing time's expired...
                                        Nah, sorry, it's o'k.

                                          The "catch" with that is the half-hour timer for editing. Either it expires during moderation or the unpredictable turn-around time for moderation means a user probably doesn't realize that it's been released from jail until hours later. In which case, the edit timer is still usually expired. Maybe there simply isn't a good solution. 😕

                                            No, the timer wasn't expired. But the post got held again, and I didn't know if the edit was gonna be fulfilled. It did eventually, but no idea as whether it was approved or done manually by a good person.
