I have been a member of the TUG Facebook group for ages and have answered lots of newbie questions. Today my answers are pending. Why is that? Pending what?

pending and answer?
My answer still has not posted, it is shaded gray and says 'pending' at the bottom left corner. I put a link to the TUG website in the answer but I've done that lots of times before with no problems. I have had other posts 'pending' on other groups where the moderators really watch what is posted, especially if there are links to websites in them. This is a first for me and supposedly I am a Group Expert and Top Contributor on the TUG group. It is a mystery!

did it contain a link?

facebook pages provide some "auto-admin" features that ive had to enable because the spam/porn/etc posts are just out of control. dozens and dozens of posts a day get auto denied or put into a review status....also if a certain number of users "report" a post or a response it can trigger these features as well.

but i dont see anything in the "potential spam" queue for the tug fb page (just looked)

as an example, there are over 50 auto declined posts from 11/19 alone....

I show your last post was published on 5:41pm?

Yes, it contained a link to the TUG website -or maybe one of the TUG Advice articles.

I show your last post was published on 5:41pm?
The one in question was posted in response to an Anonymous Member question asked at 11:23 about cancelling an upgrade. I first typed my response about 11:30, then at 12:13 it still showed pending. When I looked late in the afternoon it had posted -maybe it was at 5:41 -not sure. Anyways I just thought it was weird and I had never had that happen on the TUG FB page before.
