I posted in the Mazda5 forum on Sunday but it said it was awaiting moderator approval. Still nothing. Did I miss a step?

 

While I am not a moderator on this site, I am one on a number of other vBulletin based forums, and of late there has been a spate of new posters being dropped into "Moderator Approval" status. This seems to happen most often if a link or an image was posted inline within the first dozen or so posts. Give the moderators a chance and they'll get your post approved.
