How many posts?

[Uncle Matty]

How many posts must a new memeber to the forums post before they no longer have to have each post aproved by a MOD?

Just curious because I worry that by the time my posts make it through the mods, it may be too late in the thread.

Although I'm not sure it matters much, these forums seem to be much slower than most of the ones I usually frequent, so it may not be a big deal. I just worry that my post will show up a few hours after somebody already posted the same thing, and folks will think i'm just a parrot.

No biggie though.

It's not entirely a matter of how many posts you make, though when you post responsibly it certainly helps your cause. This happens to all new members until we see that you are ready to post on your own. Normally it will take 1-3 weeks so feel free to post normally as your posts will appear once they are accepted.

Thank you Toohip. I guess my posting of this thread before searching further down the page was a bad idea, as far as posting responsibly goes

I was just in a hurry because I was on a short break earlier.

Ah well, off to the plundering of posts!

it only took me a few days.

No no, it's a valid question. You're fine.
