New members are only moderated until it's obvious they are not trolling and someone gets around to manually unmoderating them as it's not supported through the email system (or in the very rare case that a moderator feels a discussion is getting too personal or vitriolic). That usually takes time.
One note: 95% of the attention on this list is by users; it's much more of a peer support group than a customer input mechanism. You might want to adjust your vinegar to honey ratio accordingly...
