Still on Forum Probation Period

the Baron

 What are the rules or guidelines for how long a new user is on probation? For example, does he have to reach X number of posts? Something similar to that?  Or is it more discretionary for the moderators?  It would interesting to learn something about the process.

In the HELP section under my profile, this FAQ is listed.

I've made 4 or 5 posts on the forums over the past month and I still seem to be on probation and have to wait 1-3 days for my posts to show up.  Why is this?

Hi Colonel, we moderate users for several reasons. It can be anything from simply keeping an eye on new users to putting someone on probation for breaking forum rules and causing trouble in the replies. I can look into why we have you under moderation, if you'd like. Hopefully this helps!
