Why has my content been moderated?

Content is generally moderated for two reasons:

• It has been reported by a member of the community
• It has been picked up automatically by our spam filters

Once placed into moderation, the content will be reviewed to see if it should be removed or placed back into the community. If your content is ruled as inappropriate and marked for deletion, then you will receive an email giving you the choice to appeal against the decision. From there, the community team will be in touch for a final decision.

trouble is, that email gives you no indication of why the content was ruled inappropriate - so you have no idea what you're "appealing" against.

Also, the moderated content cannot be seen - so the poster can't check what they posted in order to correct or rephrase it.
