Attention Members Making First Post
2004-05-17 by oldguydrummer
Just a reminder. All first posts from members are moderated, which means that one of the three moderators (Ed/Vern/OGD) must review the post first and approve it before it will post to the group. These first posts are sent via email to us if our accounts are setup that way, or if we are online, we see a catagory called "Pending", that we can just check off the post as "approved". If we are not readily available, your first post may take a little bit of time to show up under the Messages section. So hold off double posting, because you think that it didn't go through. Once you have posted your first message and it is a legitimate drum related post, then we will change your posting status to "unmoderated", at which point your future posts should appear soon after you submit it. (Again, if we are not nearby, it may take a short time for one of us to change your posting status.) This moderating of members first post was implimented to stop the porn/spam that was being posted to the group. We discovered that spammers/porn advertisers first posts are the bad ones. When porn/spam is sent to the group, the moderators will still get them, but we can prevent them from being posted here and we can remove that member and ban their email address from further activity here. Thanks. OGD (Moderator)
