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.

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.

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

      CT with contrast.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      New labs are now very elevated

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?

      Chances of being coeliac

      @JettaGirl, "Coeliac" is the British spelling of "celiac". Same disease.

      By JettaGirl · Posted

      This may sound ridiculous but is this supposed to say Celiacs? I looked up Coeliacs because you never know, there’s a lot of diseases related to a disease that they come up with similar names for. It’s probably meant to say Celiacs but I just wanted to confirm.

      I was told it was to see how much damage has been caused. But just told CT with contrast not any other name for it.
