posts list then they do not appear on the site? has anyone else noticed this? surely if the posts have appeared on the recent post list then they have been accepted for approval then why do they disappear?and not appear in the relevant sections?

because the person has only just posted it
Question Author
just out of interest:

has anybody ever seen whilst using AB, a sub category entitled adverts, which appears in AB's recent postings list?
its the first topic over on the left. If you have a spam filter then it wont show on your screen.

And we have answered the main question. I only suggested you ask the techies because you dont seem to understand our replies and i thought theyd help further.
Question Author
the question was why did a post that appeared in the recent posting list not appear onto the website? i understood the answers i was given,

so just to clarify: nobody posting on AB has ever noticed recent posts not appearing on the website (after they have appeared on the recent post list)?
as i said before i have clicked on a recent post to find that the whole thread has already been deleted, yes.
and me too just when its only recently been posted
Question Author
as i said before where is the logic in allowing the post to appear in the first place?

Question Author
is it AB filtering system?
itll have been posted just before the thread was pulled! There is no 'allowing it' and then pulling it. The thread or the original poster would have been banned or deleted or take off for review.
Question Author
censorship and the net?
what about it? are you asking if its right that some threads get pulled now? Yes of course it is, the website is owned by Crystal guides and they can delete whatever they want.
Question Author
though they allow it first! the problems of censorship and the net!
so would you prefer a delay in posts so that each and every post can be read and checked before being submitted to the site?
Of course, the AB office isnt always working in eves or weekends so posts wouldnt be checked til they return.

And if anyone needed an urgent answer on a Thursday eve, their post wouldnt be seen on here until a Friday, then theyd have to hope it was seen and replied to asap so that they didnt have to wait until sometime monday for a reply.
Question Author
the delay would be ab's preogative, surely re: the issues of censorship?
sort of destroys the idea of the site, a place to get answers.

All threads and posts are allowed, if offensive and the Ed spots them they get pulled. Failing that the readers get the opportunity to report the posts and or threads and these get withdrawn for checking by the Ed. The ed then makes the decision to ban them or reinstate them. Its a good setup really
Question Author
the idea of the site appears to be questions and answers, though it is subject to censorship laws.
so youre saying its breaking laws?
Question Author
not breaking a law,

subject to censorship laws, it is bound with/to the censorship laws operating within and concerning internet regulation at this current time.

jojo yesterday threads were disappearing and reappearing between Beta AB and normal AB and i could neither add to my own thread of post on others, site is totally wonky
got email from ed saying my account was not barred so dunno what happened, they dont know either
Question Author
yes, just seen '4get' (hope s/he doesn't mind me mentioning) posting in adverts a while ago and when i look in the topic list adverts don't appear to be there,
