    ... particularly my posts. OK. TPTB took exception to ONE post which used the (apparently) naughty words M*sl*ms & F*tw*h. OK. I apologise for making a facetious (and not anti-'M') comment. I have had as friends, aquaintences, and colleagues, 'M's of all degrees of religious observence, from 'bearded, robed, prayer mats in the office' to 'down the pub for a pint & a bacon sarnie'. The godfather of my 3rd child is a 'M'. (Yep. The RC Priest was pleased to accept the promise of a 'M' to ensure that my kid was brought up as a good Christian.) So, can we now stop this moderation thingy, please? [Edit. The post wasn't moderated. Ironic or what? ]

      The moderation system is an auto-spam filter, and often catches innocuous messages. Given time a human moderator will see the message and accept it if it looks reasonable, i.e. not spam or abuse. Given the amount of real spam that gets dumped here we all have to accept that occasional valid messages get caught.

        So, every post that I made today triggered the spam alarm? Every post greater than ~4 words? All the others were moderated. Entombed, Afterlife, Belief Systems, Presbyterian, Atheism, Mare in Heat. Anyhow, it only started following my 'M' and 'F' post.
