[GTALUG] writing to group

Hello moderators. I lerk in the GTALUG newsgroup often but don't often respond. I did response to the last thread for the first time in a while, but got a message back saying my message was awaiting moderation. I'm expecting this one to as well, and you can choose whether to respond directly or to post in the newsgroup and respond there. Does this group seriously moderate each and every message that passes through? Or do you have membership levels with some people requiring moderation and others not? Just curious, as if my messages are likely to get significantly delayed, then that would certainly have an effect on whether I try to post much more in the future. Kind Regards, Darryl Moore
