Even I pitch in with the post and thread approvals and you wouldn't believe the amount of crap we deal with.
Examples:
There was another one that plain outright asked for peoples usernames and passwords to be sent to an email address.
So, no I think getting rid of the post moderation would just be a ridiculous idea. Yeah it causes a mild inconvenience for your first 15 posts but it is a hell of a good way to filter out the crap.
When we perm ban people, it prevents them from coming back on "OMGDZYOUGHEYS" and spamming the forums with "ZOMGSZ YOU BANS ME BUT IZ MADE ANUFFA ACCOUNTZ INNITZ ##### YOU GUYZ"
It prevents our forums from being spammed by the clever bots and it stops scammers from trying to scam new users on our forums.
So yeah it may take a little while to approve peoples posts but it takes us much longer to ban a user, fill in the ban log and create a usernote for them. Remove their unacceptable posts or go via the method of warning them and infracting them.
Then it does to say, "validate", "ignore" "delete".
Just to say Jin we still have to do all those things for members we have to ban such as spam bots/virus/keyloggers in moderation. It's just that the forum members don't have the inconvenience of the messed up forums.I think the system is great though as I said above.

Really I don't bother, I just ban them and then IP ban them from the Habbox Network for 2 weeks.
Should probably start logging my bans again.
Idk which of us it was, but I know why. When its a ban you have to look into appeals.
When it's a Jin ban, there is only one reply: "Appeal denied"
