My thoughts on the Community?
Let me give you my thoughts on the Community. It has become worthless. SIX DELETED POSTS, including the latest which was trying to help someone with speed issues. I'm tired of this. I'm...
BTW, for the ones wondering, if you manage to get the moderated message when doing posts/edits, if you are fast enough you can click the link to see everything that was moderated, though it seems to show it in random order and not most recent first.

I guess on the bright side... We now have a way to delete our posts...? lol
Hello all!
You all are awesome, this helps. I agree, this seems to be the doing of our spam prevention system, and as far as I can tell, we can only turn it on or off. I'll have to dig further to see if there isn't another setting I can fiddle with to fix this, otherwise I'll have to let Lithium know what's going on. This is a hindrance for anyone wanting to provide help and we definitely want to get this resolved for you ASAP. I'll keep you posted.
Edit:
In the meantime, I'm gonna try out turning the spam prevention system off. I would hope that since participating here requires being a HughesNet customer, we shouldn't have any problem from randoms signing up to spam ads.
Thanks Liz
I am honestly somewhat surprised that Lithium doesn't have adjustable settings for the anti-spam bot, actually very surprised... Unlikely we would see much spam here anyways since you must have a Hughes SAN to register and post here (don't necessairly need a Hughes address from the way logon appears). But, it's a nice catch-all for spam that may possibly somehow happen over the weekend from irritated customers.
It seems that in the past we have had more issues with disgruntled subscribers than we have had with real spammers (The Nigerian Prince wants to send you $9 million tax free)
Frustration we can work through, profanity can be filtered, for the abusers there is always the Ban Hammer.
