Censors Hard At Work

Tried posting to a thread and was surprised to see a message that read something to the effect of " Your comment will appear after it is approved".  That was last night - it hasn't appeared yet.  I tried reposting; same result.  Here's what I think - I cited the Naaaked Whiz site.  Bet the search Nazis thought I was trying to subvert Americas youth...

    It happens when a thread gets quoted too many times. It will never be approved or show up anywhere. It gone.

    +1 with @Cen_Tex-it has gone into the ether forever.  BTW-I just copied in TNW's site to a thread and had no issues.  Clearly a random event and one that surfaces periodically.  The censor police will leave you alone though.

    Happens to me on a regular basis and as @Canugghead suggested that's the way to bypass the dragon in the moat! BTW I do not feel there are human censors watching the forum, but they have a "bot" that scans for certain things and it isn't watching for profanity that's for sure!

    They hit me here and there as well.

    Status- Standing by.

    The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out.

    I think they can turn off threads moving up top too. Just updated one it did not bump.

    I think they do that to KJ threads, LOL.

    Edit: just checked, yup, KJ thread won't bump to top. Hahaha.
