Hello everybody, my name is Silver and I'm here to clear up some confusion about new accounts and their ability to post.

A bit back the site had a bit of an issue with bots and them posting in a bunch of areas. Since then we've been working on fixing this issue and our way of fixing it is requiring the staff to approve posts on new accounts. As such your first post on a new account will need to be approved by the staff and in no way means your account seems shifty or anything, it is just a way of preventing bots from flooding the forums. You will be freed from this upon posting once and having it approved. Please note certain boards on the site don't contribute towards your post count so be sure to take note.

Areas that don't adjust post count:
  • Inkopolis Plaza (The entire section)

So if you just recently made a new account and see the message "Post Awaiting Mod Approval" it is simply because we're trying to keep the forum free of bots, your account is safe and you are not in trouble. We appreciate you all bearing with us and we hope you all enjoy your time here on SquidBoards

Thank you for reading and if you have any additional questions, feel free to ask.

I've used the shoutbox for a while now, but now I've decided to lurk on the forums a bit. So hello!

Since then we've been working on fixing this issue and our way of fixing it is requiring the staff to approve posts on new accounts. So for your first few posts on a new account will need to be approved by the staff and in no way means your account seems shifty or anything, it is just a way of preventing bots from flooding the forums. You will be freed from this upon posting 5 or more times on the forum and only certain boards on the site actually adjust your post count so be sure to watch your count.

Areas that don't adjust post count:
  • Welcome Center
  • Inkopolis Plaza (the forum section as a whole)

So if you just recently made a new account and see the message "post awaiting mod approval" it is simply because we're trying to keep the forum free of bots, your account is safe and you are not in trouble.
