On a thread I recently made here: http://gbatemp.net/threads/looks-like-another-gen-rock-band-3-dlc-wad-is-needed.337840/
It says at the top and bottom "Thread Status: Awaiting moderation before being displayed publicly."
The thing is, it IS being displayed and updated publicly, immmediatly when a new post is made.

If by "publicly", it means people NOT logged in can't see it, then it might be working properly, but if it's supposed to mean anyone, including those logged in, then it's bugged.

Someone tell me what's going on.

I'm getting an error:
Now I'm more confused, as there are 3 other people that have replied to it besides me, they clearly can see it too, and I still can see it and reply to it without problems.
So why can some members still see it/reply to it, and others can't?

It seems like your thread which was essentially asking for links/sources of copyrighted wads and people distributing them freely and openly to each other via PM was unapproved. The real mystery here is why you weren't all warned for it.

Right, well, that was exceedingly stupid of me, even by my standards. :wacko:

EDIT: Wait though, why can I still see/post in it then, if it's supposed to only be visible to moderators?

Perhaps one of the features of the new forum software is that OPs can still see their threads if they were unapproved but other regular members can't. I am guessing that is the case since you can still see it but others cant.
