Anyone else getting this approval needed message?has there been a shadowban on my account because I dared question Dev actions, or is there some stealthy anti bot checking going on, or just more incompetence from what we have become to expect as the norm?

No your account isn't shadowbannedThere is a spam filter on the forums to prevent spambots from being rampant and your post got caught in the spam queue
