    What censorship?

    Since you're a new member, your posts get put into a moderation queue awaiting approval for posting. If that weren't done, this forum would be rendered useless by a multitude of spam posts. It sometimes takes a bit of time for me to approve posts. (I do sleep sometimes.) That is not censorship.

    factually that is not true. this thread and my website traffic thread posted immediately. i just posted an email thread that posted immediately. that thread was exactly the same as the spam thread that got moderated/censured, except i removed the words spam and viagra. there is a flag on one of those words.

    now the irony here will be if it turns out to be viagra. i initially thought the word spam was why i was getting censored/moderated (whatever triggered my thread to be flagged), then when i made the email thread (to prove the moderated point to be true) i realized the word viagra was in the post twice, so i removed it as well.

    all i am on the forum asking is... does blue host plan on doing anything about the spam i am getting?

    Threads that get put into the moderation queue are reviewed by me and legitimate posts are approved as quickly as I can get to them.

    I'm not certain what word filters are in place for the forum (that's under the administrator's control, not mine). Regardless, posts in moderation do get approved and are not censored.

    This is a user-to-user forum. To get any official answer from Bluehost, you'll need to contact their tech support department.
