Waiting for a reply to be approved by a moderator

[PokemonScramble]

I recently replied on a thread in the romhacks studio sideshow showcase and I received a message that my post had to be approved by a moderator. It's been a couple of days I think and the post still hasn't appeared. I have posted another reply on that thread and that has worked without issues, so I'm not sure how this whole thing works.
It was a somewhat long post and it's a bit annoying to have to rewrite it, so I would like to know what happened to it...

Thank you!

You'll want to VM/PM one of the ROM hack mods about it, to make sure they're aware, and they'd know better what the issue is than I do.

Wild guess on my part is that for whatever reason your post happened to trigger the thing we have that automatically shoves certain threads/posts into the moderation queue (it's an anti-adbot measure) when it shouldn't have and then it never got approved because it does a pretty shitty job at notifying us that it did that (for posts anyway), so they never noticed

But again, speak to one of them to find out for sure.

I see! Fair enough then, I'll contact one of them, thank you very much for the help!
