Guest guest Posted February 25, 2012 Report Share Posted February 25, 2012 I have gotten more than one private email recently, and several emails on the list, about delays in posts appearing. All new members are moderated. That means, until one of the moderators has time to look at the posts lined up for approval and does the approvals, your posts won't appear on the list. All of the moderators have very busy lives off the computer. We do our best but on occasion all the moderators are away from their computers at once. So please do not worry about your posts not posting for at least 12 hours, if not more. Please be patient. We have 6,000 members. That's a small town. There are 5 of us working to keep the list running smoothly with minimal disruptions and maximum transmittal of information. We had to go to a mostly-moderated format because of repeated problems with disruptive behavior, which is understandable in a group of people this large but was not sustainable. So we had to make changes in order to be able to continue forward with the list. We apologize for the inconvenience. Please be patient. with best wishes, -- moderator On 24 Feb 2012 at 23:21, Kathleen Blake wrote: > > > > Hi Michele, > No worries!

Guest guest Posted February 25, 2012 Report Share Posted February 25, 2012 Hi , Thank you so much for your detailed response. I am SO impressed with the active role you moderators take on this forum..... kudos and blessings to you all!!!! You are helping so many people and you are working so very hard to do it. I am glad to know about the lag time, not that it really matters to me (I am never in that big of a hurry!), but just so that I know that eventually it will turn up and that it did take adn I don't have to redo. (I am kinda new to this group/forum thing, and the other 2 forums I am on post immediately, so I was just thinking I did something wrong, and had to re-do. Good to know!) Again, I appreciate all you moderators are doing. I would much rather have a delay in post time, knowing that you are " out there " overseeing, checking, answering, involved.... than to have it go thru immediately with little oversight/involvement. Thanks again, so much!! Michele > > > > > > > > > Hi Michele, > > No worries! Sometimes posts take awhile to show up! > > Best, > > Kathleen > > Re: Newbie: oops--delay in post? > > > > > > oops.
