I think  there may be a language misunderstanding here, involving the two words 
"modified" and "moderated". I  think the word mofifiied was used in error for 
moderated. I am not involved with the API forum but my knowledge of the 
en-Forum is this (and I would not expect the API forum to be much different): 

the initial posts are "moderated", that is, inspected to be sure that they are 
not "spam", carrying advertising, or trivial posts consisting of pointless 
"noise".  Unfortunately this has become necessary for initial posters to many 
newsgroups, mailing lists and forums, to help reduce the nuisance ostings and 
try to keep the list relevant to its purpose.  A user's posts are in general 
not modified; a group moderator might correct a spelling error (typos can 
happen to the best of us!) or change a mistranslated term to the correct one, 
but only to clarify the sense, in the intention to be helpful.

Once a user has had a posting approved his postings are displayed immediately.  
This process is sufficient to reduce the level of spam and noise postings 
significantly.

I hope that explanation sets your mind at rest, Yessica.
