What does this mean?

What does 'This message is moderated' mean when I leave a message on someones profile page?

[PinkFloyd]

I believe that it means that the user needs to approve the message before it's published.

When you post a visitor message and have under 250 posts and have been a member for under 3 months, the messages are moderated. Read about it here (http://www.virtualteen.org/forums/faq.php?faq=rules#faq_visitormessageguidelines).

Also, you can access the FAQ which is stickied to this forum at the top:


2. “This Message is Moderated”


If you have joined within the last three months, and/or you have less than 250 posts, you will see this message. It simply means that a moderator must approve your visitor messages before the other person can read it. It doesn’t mean you did something wrong or against the rules, but is used for your safety incase someone is trying to solicit you, send you inappropriate images or links, or anything like that.
