Did the TS3 forum change it's mode of posting threads?

I just came back from ts3 where I had went to post the information on the next assignment for Miss Cstyles Simmette and after posting....I got a notice that 'this is a moderated forum' and that I had to wait before my thread was posted!

Is this for real??

Or is it just me and EA messing with my head...?

Tried again today to post info on the contest and got this message!

This is a moderated forum.
Your message is in the queue waiting the analysis of some moderator. Please be patient.

Nooo, don't tell me that D:

That's why I haven't been over there in awhile. Who wants to post something and have to wait indefinitely for a posting. I've never heard of such. Especially on such a large forum! I'm just trying to see if it's more 'localized' this form of testing or if it's random or overall.

The sims 3 forum is always annoying me one way or another.

Thats why i stay here, and go no where else XD

Awww *gives Evie a big hugz* I think it is when you upload a pic that they have that notice up. I can reply and even start a thread but to upload anything it has to go thru que before it's posted.

That's why I stopped putting up info on the contest. Just too much work! And the first time I did it, they must have overlooked it or just ignored it so I had to do a new one and re post.
