How long does it take a comment to be available publicly?

I comment an article but my comment was not shown yet saying "Not publicly visible" [^] So how long does it take to be available?

Ok. I see it now on the article! It was taking quite some time to appear though.

Because it's in moderation. I don't know why. But I'm looking at it. It had better be worth it... :suss:

Why now in moderation queue? Why wasn't before? Just why ? What's the issue here. It's plain clean comments are being written. Doesn't make sense.

I know that. And you know that. But the hamsters get bored on Sunday afternoons.

Your message just happened to combine words that have been seen in spam messages in the past, hence it was flagged for approval instead of automatically being posted. Lucky or unlucky - you decide.

The spam detection system is a complex, heuristic piece of software that tries hard (and succeeds, mostly) to detect potential spam by analysis of the message content. If it gets too high, the message, question, or answer is sent to moderation where it takes a human being to decide to publish or not. Unfortunately, spammers are wise to this, and try to sneak their drivel through as unremarkable messages - which means that sometimes an innocent message gets caught by mistake (which is why it goes to moderation instead of immediately being deleted) because it contains words or phrases which have been seen in a lot of "genuine spam". I know it's a pain, but trust me on this: it's a damn site better than not having the system running at all! You would not believe how many posts these people can try to submit... :omg:
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...
