I believe I also pasted the usernames of posters into the quotes (unfortunately forgot the multiquote function) which turned into URLs...

If there is anything I can do to help push this forward a bit more quickly, feel free to let me know! Thank you.

I read and replied to the thread that you had posted... My post that I'm waiting on has been in queue for over 5 hours now... is there an issue that needs to be resolved? Forgive me, it is a little bit frustrating considering it is regarding a bit of a time-sensitive issue.

The post should be #24 in this thread but I have made a shorter, subsequent post following it.

Thank you!
I see the Aer Lingus | AerClub forum has one Moderator, starflyergold, who is based in Brussels - so perhaps there's a time zone issue. (Not to mention, Moderators are volunteers, most with jobs, family life and travel plans.) Sometimes there is a time lag for any of those things, but it allows FlyerTalk to be a genuine online community.

There are several ways to communicate with starflyergold:

Use Private Messaging from MyFlyerTalk or

use the Moderator contact radio button / widget at the sude of each post. In yours below, it's the . This will bring a pop up message box that will send your report to all the forum's assigned Moderators (or in this case, the assigned Mod, or all the Senior Moderators if there's no assigned forum Moderators).

I see you edited your first post in that thread - that might have put it back in the queue. I also see starflyergold deleted an empty post (would have been post #4 ). What would be #25 , at 00:53 in BRU may not get looked at until daytime Brussels time.

It's frustrating - I apologize for the frustrations - but we've found these hoops and hurdles for newly signed up members has reduced quite a bit of our spam (and we get a lot of it - you generally don't see it because we're pretty responsive and have tools in place). You're close to the point your posts won't be autohandled when they contain URL links or links to graphics and other files as "new member" posts; that's good news.
