You're on moderation because you have (a) moderated your posting
behaviour here, where you are on moderation (b) continued to post in
this manner elsewhere, where you are not on moderation.

This strongly suggests that moderation is the only thing keeping your
posting behaviour acceptable.

Remember that the actual point is to make the list not toxic. So far,
it appears moderation is doing that job.

I have noted that I am not personally inclined to remove the
moderation, but that if any other moderator did I wouldn't object. So
far none have done so, and instead have concurred with the above
analysis.

Nobody has a right to post to this list. But so far every post you've
made while on moderation has gone through.
