Hi,
I have a couple of questions please.
When a moderated post isn't approved, does the writer get private notification with explanation, or is the post edited then posted (with or without explanation)?
Once a moderated post is approved by one moderator, can it be removed by another?
Thank you!

We don't edit posts. Posts might be deleted, although that's rare, but not edited.

I had a post deleted in Hot Topics, that I thought was by the moderators, but I figured out I accidentally did it. Often I post then see typos and edit them. Well on Hot Topics if you edit your post it has to be approved again and one time I tried to edit the post and my toddler swiped my touch screen and that left the page and so my post seemed to have been deleted. I went back to the page and tried get it fixed and it was not there. I had pressed save right before the toddler swipe so I thought it had worked and may be a moderator denied my post, but given the toddler swipe I am pretty sure it was my toddler.

Yes, I just realized that editing a previously approved post in a moderated forum sends it back to the moderators. This had been adding to my confusion. I'm starting to feel my way around a little; I appreciate your willingness to help!

Oh good! I'm glad you figured that out. It's actually a bit confusing!

If you post in Hot Topics, does your post appear immediately, or do you have to wait for a moderator to approve it? I thought it posted immediately, and only needs to be approved by a moderator if it's edited (one of my posts only vanishes for me if I edit it), but my mom didn't think so.

In the Student area, it posts immediately. In the main area, your post has to be approved by a moderator before it appears. So you're both right! We haven't needed to put moderation on all the Hot Topics posts in the Student area so far.

I enjoy the delay in the non-student Hot Topics area a lot. I think it is a great way to have people check themselves. Thanks to whoever thought of that. I feel like it a natural way to implement the CM idea of the will gets tired and needs a break. Forming our passionate thoughts in a way that gives grace sure takes the will and that gets tired fast. With the forced breaks I think the quality of discussion is enhanced.
