Can someone post without approvement?

This is a real question despite chewitt just delete my old thread:

Is this normal in this forum? I never experience something like that and really need to say that it annoys me a lot.

Does this just happens to some users or to all? What is the propose of this? Why can't it work like anywhere else where you can just post and it's accesible for other users to read?

Kindly approved by Iridium (who just delete/disapproved another critical post he didn't like )

This is a moderated forum.

Like all this other forums I'm on - no difference despite here goes everything thru censorship upfront which this topic is about. So I'm asking here why are things like that? Is the server location china or the content mafia threatening this forum? Why are these radical measurements needed here?

What YOU think is acceptable may not be acceptable to others.

And here comes the funny thing. I thought all of my posts are acceptable - and oh wonder - they are! All past the censorship team - despite this one*, chewitt wasn't accepting this thread here and trashed the first version of it. But then comes Iridium and is fine with it - I guess like everybody else. Why not? Are we talking about secrets here? Only chewitt knows - maybe he will tell us and enlighten us?

BTW: As you have brought yourself to the attention of LE moderators, any additional posts will get a lot more attention than other posters.

What does this mean exactly? Now it will takes 2 days that my posts are get published?
