To give you an idea of why that would happen, I'll explain it:
1. I have a program that scans every post on the forum, especially new members to prevent spam.
2. You said a keyword that makes the program kick it over to me to be sure you aren't spamming the forum.
3. It can take anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours to be approved.
Welcome to the site again! What part of NC are you from?
Moderators generally check posts on new people until they get the hang of posting. If there were a problem the moderator would contact you. Just post away asking for whatever information you need.
