How do I see my threads?

[GoGetta]

Hey,

I sometimes find it difficult and laborious to find my threads and see the replies I may have had. Every now and then I forget to subscribe to my own threads and it's a little tricky to find them.

Can someone let me know how to do it? Sorry if this is a silly question with a really simple answer although I'm kind of hoping that's what it is.

Thanks,

GoGetta

p.s. I hope I can find this thread now.

1) Click on your name in upper right corner
2) click on ‘Statistics’ tab
3) Click on ‘Find all posts by ...’ or ‘Find all thread started by’

How long will it take for the moderator to approve the post?I have just sent a thread but it has not appeared yet.I wish that I can get a few feedbacks on my thread as soon as possible.

FYI you have 6 posts as of now, I can see them.

I don't think MODs usually need to approve threads before they post (could be for new users). They often catch and hold them if you have violated the rules, but they also send you a PM (private message) in those cases. Look in the upper right corner to see if you have private messages.

I'm a new member here.Just now,I was intending to post a new thread in the "character and contribution" forum but I couldn't even see my thread after sending it.If I'm not mistaken,the instruction sounds as if it tells me to wait for approval.Anyway,there's no private message so far.

Or you can do what I do and set your settings to subscribe you to threads you post in/create. Then they can be accessed by going to your user CP.

It stands for user control panel.

On the left of the user cp page click on options and you should see the setting as Default Thread Subscription mode. Personally I set it as 'no email notification' but you can choose to be email as well when someone replies to a thread you're subscribed. Either way, threads you're subscribed to that have unread posts will appear right as soon as you go to your user cp, along with an option right beneath to view all threads you are subscribed to.

If you have an external link in thread, it gets caught by a spam filter and remains unpublished till a Mod looks at it. This is to prevent a large number of spammers that attack the site on a daily basis.

surprisingly, your thread was caught by filter, maybe because it has some spammy keywords. I have cleared it.

Unless you are being moderated for being new, you seem to be doing something not quite right. For me posts and new threads show up immediately. Perhaps its your browser. Try posting, then logout and log back in again. If that does not bring your thread up, contact a moderator by going to the main index page and clicking on one of the moderator names on the far right of the section of the forum you posted in.

On the off chance that you expecting your post to show up in 'new posts' it will not until someone else responds. 'new posts' does not show ones that you have read.

Otherwise, try posting the complete sequence of what you did so hopefully someone can spot were you went 'wrong'.

The thread has been cleared. See my reply above.
