Only New Threads being approved?

Hello,
Since I first reigstered, I’ve notice that only new threads are being approved by the moderator.
None of my replies are being approved.

I’ve only created one new thread, so mytotal posts only show 1.

Is this some sort of newbie discrimination by moderators? To approve only new threads, and not new replies?
Thanks

Not at all. Sometimes the moderator queue gets backed up. New threads are listed first in the queue by the forum software, so that’s often what gets addressed first.
