I can't say for sure but I know that I've had posts take as much as 5 or 6 days to show up from moderation though more often it was 24 hours-ish.
I'm not sure if my posts are moderated anymore or not but I don't actually care. My participation in this board is relative to my level of patience for BS. I enjoy helping other users (here and many other fora) and I'd like to have input into what I get out of MLO but most times it feels like I'm speaking into a vacuum so I rarely bother anymore.
