myATS Discrepancy

When I go to myATS and look at the threads I've started, I see that the last person who posted in one of my threads was "Anonymous ATS", but going to the thread itself shows that nobody has posted anonymously in said thread, and the last post was from a registered member. Refreshing the pages produces the same results. Any ideas why this would happen?

Because the Anonymous post tag shows up well before the actual post has been approved and posted for some reason. Hopefully a mod can explain why but eventually you will see that anonymous post.

That's pretty much it. Although it shows that an anonymous poster has made a post, it doesn't become visible until a staff member has approved the post. It may not be approved because it doesn't keep with the T&C or in some cases it's just a pointless 1-liner.

Ah, I see. I didn't realize that anonymous posts required approval. Thanks for clearing that up
