I just posted something in the F-Mod topic, and it says that the post need to be aproved by a moderator, is this intentional or not?
I fint this really annoying because If I want to edit the post, I cant and because I cant see the post I did :S
Edit: is just in the new modding section I think.
Posts need to be aproved by a mod?

Now I noticed that the BBCode [img] cant be used in the working mods subforum, so I cant edit my topic 
Re: Posts need to be aproved by a mod?
Should be fixed now. The working mods section is still a bit under construction=)
Re: Posts need to be aproved by a mod?
Only slighted related to this topic but didn't really want to create a new topic about it in the mods section so...
What exactly defines a 'working' mod? If it was only for finished mods I'd understand that but I'm fairly sure ficolas intends to add a bit more to his F-mod...Or is it simply for stable mods that are not going to change tremendously from one update to the next?
It would seem to me that if it was mainly to separate developed mods from mods that haven't been updated in a while or that were concepts\WIPs that it would be cleaner (though maybe not easier) to move the mods that have not been updated to a separate subforum named something like "Concepts WIPs and outdated mods".
Also, why is it within Contributions instead of the modding subforum? lol
One last thing that's a bit more of my opinion than a question but, it says "Bigger mods can get own subfolder. " I'd say that the F-mod with 28 pages (and 200+ posts) might be considered a "big" mod, I would think this would make it easier for him to have a FAQ/Help section and a separate topic for updates/status reports

Re: Posts need to be aproved by a mod?
How would I be able to tell that the message/topic belongs to a mod before I (not)-read it?
Currently I can "ignore" it simply by visiting it's thread and immediately hitting back.
( I don't want to setup a mailbox and a mail client to read forums, I prefer the "view unread posts", which AFAIK does not go by sections. )

Re: Posts need to be aproved by a mod?
The point of starting the 'Working mods" section was to make it easier for the players who would like to play with mods to find what they want. However FreeER raised some fair points. So I have rebuilt a bit the Modding forum to accomodate to that. Now there are only mod threads and the rest is in the subforums. I think it is better organized this way.
