Re: The External Tips and Tutorial Link Thread

why do i keep getting a 'held by system' on some of the post in this thread?

From what I've read (over at the help forum) held by system is sort of a replacement for "deleted by moderator." Its not quite as permanent, though. Think of it as purgatory for controversial or off topic posts.
