Lately Praja has been flooded with spam posts from people promoting irrelevant products and services. There have been times when the admins/moderators have had to clean up as many as 10 posts in a day. In view of this we have put together a filtration feature.
From now on any post from a new user will have to be approved by the admins before it gets posted. As for the comments by these new users, they can be approved by the admins as well as moderators.
These road blocks have been put in place for new users ONLY. Experienced Praja users will not see any changes. We regret the inconvenience caused to the genuine new users. We request new users to expect a delay in their posts/comments appearing on the site.
Any feedback on this feature as well as a better way of tackling this problem is welcome. Kindly make a comment below this post.

email flood - regretted
Post/Comment approval process for new users caused an email flood for some long time Praja website users. Inconvenience is regretted.
To make it very clear, the way this works is
We are thinking of better and more automated ways of fighting spam, will keep all posted of further changes in this regard.
