What is "Moderated(modset)"?

[adaffme149]

I noticed that Candyman had that in his name recently, but I don't remember it always being like that. What does that mean? I went to send him a PM to ask what it meant/what it was for, but I'm either stupid or it's not possible... What happened? Is it like a revoking of some rights or something, and if so what sort of a thing does one have to do to have that happen (And candyman, if you wanna give for example the reason why yours is like that, that'd be appreciated., no offense I'm just not sure exactly what it is for.

Moderated(modset) means that an admin set moderated status on you. All of your posts have to be approved by an admin before they post. There may be other restrictions as well, though I'm not sure on all of them.

This usually happens after a certain amout of neg rep

"Moderated" means that every post you make has to be checked by a moderator, and you can't send PMs. I think there are also other abilities that are limited. The "modset" means it was set by a moderator, for breaking The Rules.

There's also "Moderated (Rep)", which happens because of low rep. Less than -5, IIRC.

Incorrect. If you get moderated because you have too much neg rep, your status would be "moderated (rep)".

Moderated(modset) means that an admin set moderated status on you. All of your posts have to be approved by an admin before they post. There may be other restrictions as well, though I'm not sure on all of them.

Some of the restrictions include the inability to exchange PMs and the inability to receive reputation.

Ah, I see now. Thanls to all that replied!

I can't believe I missed this. Well, anyway, I was what some call "spamming" before my one week ban. Martin suggested that I be moderated once I got back and I've been this wonderful orange color ever since.

You also can't:

See other people's blogs (without logging out)
See your own pictures in the member's gallery or do anything to them
Unsubscribe from threads that are weeks old and you want to get rid of
See others' profiles, or your own
Contact mods or admins via PM
Contribute your opinion before ten other people reply before your post gets approved a day later, so people skip over it
Have any credibility

Ouch... that sucks, Blanch. I'd hate to be moderated.

Man, that must suck. I guess it would be a good idea not to make a huge amount of humorous but meaningless and wasteful posts, by moderating yourself, and limiting the dumb posts to one or two a week!

Um, if you get a modset for negative rep, and part of that modset is the inability to receive rep...

Call me crazy, but I think only a Moderated(modset) will take away your rep gaining abilites.

A Moderated(reputation) probably won't.

Ouch. Well, at least you're back, now, Candyman. Glad to have you back and a productive member of the community.

those are two different types of moderated you're confusing, Moderated (modset) will result in you not being able get any rep but that has to be manually removed or it has to expire (depends on what was set). Moderated (rep) won't prevent you from getting new rep and you also have to get out of it by getting your rep up.

Got it. Thanks Martin.

So, just what does the inside of your arse look like while you're up there?
