So why are all comments now being moderated before being posted? Seems like its back to the censoring current members again. Sad state of affairs. Will this get deleted as well?

Please see the previous post I made on this topic:
This has everything to do with spam. You will only need to be approved for your first three posts, after that you are good to go. This prevents the large amount of spam that comes in from "new users" to never make it onto the boards as I do not approve their posts and ban their IPs. Nobody likes to see "buy this cheap real designer bag filled with Viagra and steroids, oh and you will win a million dollars if you just send me $100 to Nigeria." :-)
