All new users (including old users, who've unsubscribed, and resubscribed)
are by default on moderation. The mod flag is removed as soon as the
person posts a first worthwhile post. The flag is reinstated, if the
person begins or participates in a high-noise thread.

Because of some recent complaints about people being stuck in moderation
queue forever, I decided to give this newcomer a chance, despite better
knowledge.
