TEG Project Manager

Hello there, I joined today and am trying to post my 'new member' but it says it needs approval. Screenshot:


It has been awaiting approval for 6 hours. Is this normal?

I'm a new TEG member and just posted my first thread today. I got a wonderful answer and wrote a "thank you"/two more question post. When I posted this post it says it needs to be "looked at by a moderator" or something like that. Did I do something wrong?
