Default Why wasn't my post approved?

Hi, I tried to make a post in the Megasquirt section of the forum, but I got the message, "Your post will not be visible until a moderator has approved it for posting." It's been like 3-4 days and my post is nowhere to be seen. I'm not entirely sure what rule I broke, or how I could have posted my question better. I provided a log file and a tune file, and all the info about my car, harness, and MS build. If someone could tell me what I did wrong, it would be appreciated. This is my first time joining an old school internet forum so forgive me if I don't pick up on the etiquette right away.

Not sure why the forum software sometimes gets into that mood. It's approved, but you'll probably run into this again.

It's not you, it's just that Internet Brands, the company which makes the software, very specifically hates all of us and wants us to be unhappy.

Guy did a PROPER early post and still got busted.
Hah!
Normally it's a post with no info at all and the members do the "busting."

Welcome Kanjo Dave!
You appeared to have followed all the etiquette PERFECTLY!
You will be welcome here!

You did nothing wrong. If this silly system flags another post again, just reach out to one of us and we'll approve it

Looks like the forum software hates me too.

I replied yesterday to the 'Connector Witch Hunt' thread to share some connector information I thought would be helpful to others here. I got that same message described in the first post and it looks like it is still in that state.

Interesting. The forum flagged your post as spam.

Well, hopefully you don't agree with the system on that.

Just trying to share information I thought some people might find helpful. Maybe it didn't like one of the links I included? (examples of where the parts could be sourced - one was on eBay)

I've just been struck down by the forum software too.

Made my first post a couple of days ago and received the "Your post will not be visible until a moderator has approved it for posting".

Help would be appreciated. Thanks!
