i've done something wrong... I just don't know what... :)

[Alrope]

Hi folks,

I've create the thread: http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum...od-Starting-Mesogeios-The-Bronze-Age-Collapse yesterday, and today when I was answering the posts, I tried to change the picture of my first one... I don't know what I've done, but obviously it was something wrong... because my first post vanished.

What should I do? Or shouldn't have done...

Thanks in advance!

whatever you added caused it to be put into moderation. Someone with the abilities to approve it will be along shortly.

Editing of posts and adding links can cause this to happen

Oh, I see...

I was worried I've done something stupid and just deleted the post.

Thanks a lot!

Well,

Now the complete thread disapeared...
I hope it came back soon...

If I've made any mistake or broke any rule please warn me about to avoid I make the same mistake again.

Thanks in advance!

If you had done something wrong you would have recieved an infraction or atleast a warning.
I suspect whomever cleared the spam moderation missed that yours was legitimate.
Unfortunately because it is spam they were removing it would be permanently gone.
Hopefully it is not too much work to rebuild it.
The more posts you have the less the system will decide what you are doing is spam.
But the number one thing that will make your posts look like spam is having external links in them, especially to non main stream sites and then the number of links as well.

Thanks!

The only thing it had was links of pictures from photobucket....
I've tried to recreate the thread, but it went to moderation again... Should I use only the attachment system?

Post as you wish, and if a post or thread gets snagged then possess yourself with patience and wait. I get to the moderation queue usually at least once a day. Once your number of posts gets up, past about 50 I think, the spam-guard tool's level of suspicion drops and you'll have fewer problems like this.

I have adjusted some settings and reduced the post threshold for lower suspicion. Hopefully you should not have more issues, unless you share an IP range with a major spammer.
