Patch reliability is unclear, but widespread attacks make patching prudent. Go ahead and patch, but watch out for potential problems. |

MemberDid you signed in, or did you forget and posted as “Anonymous” by mistake? That can take quite a while “awaiting moderation.” But 7 hours seems unusual.

AskWoody PlusI have had a post awaiting “moderation” for almost 7 hours now.
Happens to me frequently. Happened just 30 minutes ago.
I like to stay “logged in” to AskWoody, but about once a month I am logged out, by what or by whom I do not know. Not by me unless, perhaps, I do a system restore.
If I were smarter, when I see “awaiting moderation” I would immediately check my login-status.
If this site made a serious distinction in a banner that I was no longer logged in, I would possibly see the difference before I typed in a response and then submitted it half a dozen times (“Hit it again, but even harder!”)
I hope this helps.
Chris
Unless you're in a hurry, just wait.
