I'm sure this has been asked before, but how do the moderators read the posts so fast ? i know they have to view them before posting but once you click to send it comes up right away.

there is loads of them, each person doesn't read EVERY post but between them they will get through them all and they will monitor them.

When you type a message/quote it comes up on the screen in an instance, i wondered how the mods screened it so fast, say you swear does it come up on the screen and they moniter it later, then take it out ?

AFAIK, swearing is auto-censored - it scans posts automatically for certain words and replaces them with ****.

Oh come on. If this level of xenophobia/racism was displayed towards any other nation/race it would be clamped down upon like lightning. She lives in America.... get over it.

How? I've never displayed any form of racism nor been xenophobic in any way towards any race or nationality.

From previous posts T020 even I have worked out that Poppins is not American! The post amused me that's all, it was an easy mistake to make if your new to such things.. A bit like thinking you might have a the ability to take something in a light hearted manor! Don't worry, it wont happen again!
