    Hi all,

    Posted for the first time ever in the Gen 2 maintenance and troubleshooting forum asking for help with an issue. Used the Android Prius Chat app. But the post has just been sitting un-posted. It says "Awaiting moderation before being displayed publicly." It's been several hours. Is this normal? Did I do something wrong?

    Looks like it's posted. Yah! Is there a good thread to learn all the ins and outs of the forums? Policies and good-to-know stuff?

    Posted via the PriusChat mobile app.

    I think the app is broke... Maybe use a web browser instead?

    Welcome to PriusChat.
    Perhaps a moderator was asleep at the switch.
    I believe all first posts are moderated as part of the spam reduction system here. Don’t take it personally.

    Seems like my posts are still getting held up: "This message is awaiting moderator approval, and is invisible to normal visitors."

    Maybe I picked the wrong username ;}

    @Tideland Prius is there any way you can help debug this?
    I just tagged a moderator so he can hopefully assist.

    You're welcome.
    I just checked & saw it but I do not keep a close eye here at times.

    We are generally very friendly here but I suspect that perhaps your username triggered some of the SPAM mitigation efforts here. Sorry for the hostile welcome here.

    Same thing happened to me. Took about 2 days for my posts to be approved. Even now I have to wait.

    Sorry to hear. I had sent a PM to one of the moderators. They were pretty good about getting back to me and straightening things out. @Tideland Prius

    I understand my first post, and first thread but i'm still getting flagged.

    I do happen to have another forum open at the same time. Not sure if that is causing issues as well.

    Already did. You get flagged until you have 5 approved posts. So even if you have 4 approved ones and you post 8 after, because your 5th is awaiting approval, all your other ones will be in the queue as well.

    Sorry, I was busy picking up my Prime yesterday. ;)

    Congrats!
    Adding to the fleet or trade one in?
    What colour did you get?
