Suddenly Moderated?

In posting today I have noticed that my posts are being moderated. May I ask the reason for this? Just kind of confused.

This board has always been moderated. The moderators review all posts and topics for any rule violations and approve all posts that don't break those rules. During the past 24 hours, for example, several spammers were banned and more than a dozen spam posts were deleted. The main reason we moderate this board is to stop spamming, which, if we did not do, would greatly diminish each user's experience here.

We did recently change the method of moderation here, so you may notice a slight difference.

Take care,

Scott

Thanks for posting this! I was curious too... all of a sudden I was getting this message of "A moderator will preview your post" every time I wrote something, and I was thinking "OMG, what did I do??"

Somebody would tell you if you something were wrong. :)

It may take longer for your posts to get approved as we all get used to this system, please don't take it personally, we're trying to figure things out too. :)

We are still fine-tuning the changes to the moderation methods. All of us are in North America, so there there is a period when we tend to all be asleep. Posts made during that time may experience longer delays than usual before being approved.

I was wondering exactly the same thing. I thought "Oh my what did I say?" I also notice a "watch status" at the bottom of my name... what does that mean?

Thanks for your help.

The 'warn status' bar under your name would show you if you had been warned for any rule violations. You would also receive a PM explaining everything. BUT, you have no warnings. :P The bar is only visible to you and the moderators. Everyone has one, but you only see yours.

Welcome to the forum! :)

Ohhhh thank you so much for your reply. At 60 years old and having been on the Internet in chat rooms and on forums for many many years, I have never felt as awkward as I did when I received the moderator notice and warn status... thought I did something wrong. I appreciate your answer and explanation.

We're pretty anti-spam here. I know it's a bit of a hassle for new members, but then, you don't log on and see 15 tennis shoe posts either...

HEheeheeha oh my, first thing I did today was try to figure out how to get rid of the warn status thingy. Sometimes I'm a cranky poster, mostly when glutened.

Scott Adams Grand Master

If you ever did get a warning only you and the moderators would be able to see your warnings, other members cannot.

Take care,

Scott

      That is a very good point I do not know if they truly ever went down. With my nutrient levels all being good, CBC, metabolic panel I assumed everything was fine over the years. Now Im worried this is refractory celiac or something else

      I don’t know how common it is, but it happens.  Total IgA going up is not necessarily celiac related.  The body can make IgA antibodies against all sort of things.   But if I understand correctly that until recently you haven’t had a celiac blood test since diagnosis, how do you know that your recent blood tests are a mild rise, vs never going down to the normal range? That also can happen, although not too common. Some people with celiac disease do react even to purity protocol certified gluten free oats. Removing oats from your diet for a few months and retesting is probably a good idea.

      interesting I did not know that was that common or could take that long.  When I was diagnosed 15 yrs ago I was told just follow gluten-free diet and follow up with primary care doctor (who never checked celiac panel again). I felt way better and all the major symptoms went away. It wasn't until recently at 25 (14 yrs after diagnosis) that I thought to follow up with a gastro doctor who then did a celiac panel and noted those minor elevations 3 months ago then I got them checked again by another doctor the other week and were showing roughly the same thing.  I am very strict with what I eat and dieitican was maybe thinking it could be oat flour. I do eat a fair amount of processed food but I will not touch anything unless it is certified gluten free.  Do you see this pretty commonly with others? Having mild rises in TTG IGA and IGA who have been on gluten-free diet for years?

      Do you have any other results from either of the two labs where you’ve been tested recently?  If so, are the newest results from that lab elevated over previous results? It took me 5 years to get all of my antibodies into the normal range. Then 3 years later one went up into the positive range.  I realized that I had started baking with a different brand of gluten free flour.  When I stopped using that flour the level went back to normal.  Has something changed in your diet, environment, activities, medications or other areas where you could possibly be exposed to gluten?

      Thank you for the clarifcation, how can I get to the bottom of this as to why they may be elevated even on a super strict gluten-free diet?
