This may be because of the filters, since you are a new poster. It needs to sniff at you a bit and make sure you aren't a spam bot.

However you may ask a mod to kindly move this thread to the "About BAUT" section. That may get the thread the attention of those who are currently in the mindset:P

The mindset to discuss issues with BAUT I guess.

Hi Albert. Posts from very new users that contain URLs are held for a quick mod review. This has become necessary by the amount of automated spam that hits the board. By holding it, the mods can delete spam before the public has to wade through it. The mods take those lumps so we all don't have to.

I don't know exactly where the board stops holding posts with links, but it's somewhere in the first ten posts. After that, you'll have "cleared customs".

Welcome aboard.
