In summary, VM moderation refers to a system where messages or content are reviewed and approved by a designated moderator before being posted publicly. This is indicated by the message "This message is moderated", meaning it has not yet been approved. The decision to moderate a message is made by the platform or website administrator, and the time it takes for a moderated message to be approved can vary. If a message is unjustly moderated, there is usually an option to appeal by contacting the platform or website administrator.

I just noticed that the VM i receive or are sent by me have a message on them "This Message is Moderated". What's this? I don't think i have done any wrong recently that my VMs need to be moderated.

To combat some spam, we've moderated all VMs. You did nothing wrong. Should be accepted very shortly :)
