Why do my replies to a group not get posted?

Question

I have tried twice in two days to add a comment to a new group I just found but my comments do not appear. Do I have to join?

Answer 1

Yes you would have to be a member.

Answer 2

If message posts are for members only, yes, you will have to join. If you're already a member, you may be on moderated status and the mod/list owner is deleting your messages.  If they reject them, you'll receive a message back.
