Are all posts that contain links blocked?
I made a post last week, included a link in it to demonstrate what I was talking about, but it never seems to have been posted. Are we never allowed to post links? TIA.

I haven't been here for a long time, but I think I remember something about only being able to post links after a certain number of posts (can't remember how many). That was to stop people signing up just to spam

The post in question was stuck in a "moderation" queue - awaiting approval but it seems to have been missed... i have corrected the problem and the post is now showing.

Sorry about that - yes, any posts containing a link by a new member (less than 10 posts) has to wait for approval from a moderator before it'll go public. It captures a huge amount of spam, but also a couple of normal comments, too.

Umm, I asked what I thought was a legitimate question in the Internet & Technology forum. It contained a link and hasn't surfaced for days.
