If you don't immediately see the post you just made....

...it's likely due to anti-spam plugins I have running. They're good but they're a bit feral and sometimes they can give me a false positive. So, if you don't see your post immediately it's likely in the queue for me to approve. If you have any concerns related to this however, please message me :)

You must be doing a great job cause it is a long time since I saw any garbage posts pushing some product or trolls just trying to stir people up.

Gosh, that has to be tough work, approving each post.

Enjoy your Troll lunch, and thank you for keeping us safe

Not each one. The software flags those that have a high probability of being spam and only those are sent for approval. The delay that you might see is the anti-spam software analyzing the message and trying to figure out if it is likely spam -- if not spam, then it posts the message, if it might be spam, then it sends it off to Andrew.
