    Posting Question

    Do all posts have to be approved by a moderator? Is it a Live Media (Live CD/DVD/USB) section thing? Or are there certain sections that have to be approved by a moderator?

    No: only the first few by new members. I agree that the filters are too strict, and will investigate changes.

    Thanks,
    V

    P.S. Your posts have been approved.

    Re: Posting Question

    Just to explain a bit. As with all Forums, we get a TON of spammers attempting to post garbage. We have some blocks in effect so that few get through, but those who do will generally post a link. So, for the first few posts, if a new member posts a link, that post has to be approved. Hope that explains a bit. However, as Hlingler mentions, we're constantly re-evaluating our methods.

    Ok that makes sense. Thank you for explaining that. Maybe make this a sticky. I am sure I am not the first person to ask this and I am sure I won't be the last.

    I've updated the FAQ to add Moderation as a topic. So, now we can use "RTFM" and point to it instead of just being secret squirrels.

    We still have a FAQ and no DB crash.

    Okay, okay, it was just that once and only for 3-4 months. BTW, I added a new top entry pertaining to Fedora. Suggestions? Dump it?

    Just once... Hummm, if I remember correctly, didn't you dumped 10,000 users once as well....

    Okay, I killed off a few thousand, shut down the instructions on how to use the Forum for a few months and caused the Northeast Blackouts of 1965 and 2003 by flipping the wrong breaker. Sheesh, anyone can make a mistake.

    I haven't made one in damned near a week and a hal..........fff..ff.f.f.f..f.ffffffffffffffff *bleep*

    I'm almost sure you are a Mayan descendant, and will have something to do with 2012...

    Now that you mention it, Grandpa Keck C. Kohatel and Grandma Lucy Furr did some work with a calendar for 2012. Mayan Gals Gone Wild, I think.

    Re: Posting Question

    I wonder if you can inform me about the legality of posting some topics about Oracle on fedora
    such as how to install Oracle on fedora, Oracle Database Admin., building Oracle APEX application, etc..
    Click here for Oracle legal notices.

    Best regards,

    Re: Posting Question

    That would depend on the restrictions of Oracle. If it is legal in their eyes to install their software on Fedora and you are not avoiding payment in some fashion, then the Forum would not have issues. That said, I notice your username and do have some concerns that we'll be seeing an ad campaign for Oracle by constant, multiple threads and posts promoting their use. That's not acceptable.
