Posts pending approval?

In recent days I have experienced, twice, my posts not being posted immediately and then after a few hours I receive an email that tells me that my post was approved by a moderator or administrator.
Can anybody tell me why this?
Have I been deemed hazardous for this forum and my posts are under somebody's surveillance?

I don't think so.. Some of mine had to be approved as well.. sometimes I have to approve my own posts :) go figure ;)

There is a spam filter that will sometimes flag posts for review based on whatever conditions, could be ip/location, lots of links, no posts for a long time (common spammer behavior), etc...

When you post in a recent topic we'll see it straight away, but when it's in an old topic it won't be visible in the "recent posts" and nobody will see it until they actually go to see the approval queue, sometimes nobody happens to do so for a couple of days/weeks.
