Not all first topics and posts become Unapproved. Only spam suspected entries are going for moderation. Spam suspicion level can be decreased in Dashboard > Forums > Tools > Antispam admin page to something like this:

  • Spam Suspicion Level for Topics: 30    
  • Spam Suspicion Level for Posts: 40

Also if the topic (first post) is unapproved, all posts of this topic becomes automatically unapproved (post author doesn't matter). Because you can't see a post if the topic is unapproved.

False - This is happening on every post and I have spam filtering OFF and I have both settings set to ZERO and it is still happening.
