This idea may be a little too specialized, but it would be great if LUGNET
could automatically delay posts that have references to BrickShelf pics that
have not yet been moderated. Here's how it would work:

- Poster submits a post. If it includes a URL with the brickshelf domain
that does not reference a deep link, then the LUGNET server would attempt to
read the link to the folder or item.
- If the resulting link includes the string indicating that the folder has
not yet been moderated, then the server would generate a web-conformation
page, or add new options to the e-mail confirmation page.
- The new options would be something like:
"This message include links to a BrickLink folder that has not yet been
moderated.
[x] Please post this after the folder has been moderated.
[ ] Post this message immediately."

Thanks for considering this.

Cool idea but it is overkill. I'd say 80% of the people use deep links. It is actually fun, IMHO, to see a preview and then have to wait. The other 20% will either post not caring too much about the delay or wait for the folder to be modded. Also, (...) (21 years ago, 7-Jan-03, to lugnet.admin.suggestions)
