Moderator needs to approve post?

[Sailor Worm]

Why does whenever I post something a moderator needs to check it but my friend doesn't have that?

A moderator only needs to check the first forum post you ever write. c: This is in place to make sure you aren't a spam-bot and are an actual human being. If your friend has already gotten their first post approved, they wouldn't need to have any others checked, and now, since you have two posts accepted, you don't either!

Also, some websites are blacklisted, so if you post an image that comes from one of them, moderators need to check your post to make sure it follows CS rules.

This keeps happening to me though! It's not my first post that needs to be approved, it's nearly all of them D: Am I doing something wrong?

Posts that contain images will need extra approval for a while after you first join, usually around a week, so if your posts have images in them, then it's normal. They'll also need to be approved again if you edit a post that already had an image in it. Approval on images should go away sometime soon though! And, as Aliria said, some websites are also blacklisted, so images from those sites will pretty much always need approval - there is no public list of these sites, though. But, most likely, it's just because you have a new account, and will stop soon ^^
