Other pre-defined usergroups include Administrators, Global Moderators, Registered Users, Newly Registered Users, and Registered COPPA users. When you first join the forums, you are automatically a Newly Registered User. While in this group, your first post(s) on the forums will need to be approved by a moderator before it shows up on the forums. Once your first post is approved, you are automatically removed from the Newly Registered Users group and will no longer require moderator approval of your posts unless an administrator deems it necessary due to forum behavior.
