What's up with requiring moderation of posts?

Just noticed this, did someone fat-finger the software? Seems kind of excessive to approve all posts.

not all posts here , the only time i have seen this is if i posted a non approved link in my post

I am getting a lot of moderated posts, and they don't contain links. Seems to only be in one particular thread, this post didn't get moderated. What's going on?

Regarding my moderated posts, they included "dangerous" words like "tor" or "ddos".

It's a feature of the BBS content management software, and generally works - it does pick up on some keywords, and makes for a bit of work on the forum owner and designated moderators...

Moderation is based on keywords, which change according to what spammers are currently selling. Sorry for the minor inconvenience.
