Missing Posts?

To make sure that SMF mentoring is safe and secure for everyone, some messages will be held for moderation before they are passed on to your mentoring partner.

Blue Question Mark

How does moderation work?

Posts are checked automatically for offensive language, contact details and other content that might affect the safety of mentors and mentees. Any flagged messages will be checked by your coordinator before your mentoring partner sees them.

What if my coordinator doesn't check my messages quickly enough?

Your coordinator will moderate posts as quickly as possible, but if a message has gone unmoderated for a week or longer it will be looked at by BrightsideUNIAID.

If your message is more than a week old and still hasn't been moderated, there may be a fault in the system. Get in touch on support@brightsideuniaid.org to let us know about it.

My urgent message is being held for moderation!

If your message needs to be sent quickly - for example, to tell your mentee about an upcoming event - there are a few things you can do:

  • Split it up: Send time-sensitive information in a separate message to general discussion to make sure the urgent part isn't held back with the rest of the message.
  • Contact your coordinator: If you let your coordinator know about your urgent message, they might be able to deal with it quicker than usual. But don't rely on this - coordinators are busy people!
