Apparently an anti spam measure, and after a few more posts, they should all be open for you.

Most threads are not closed; that’s a gross misapprehension. Only very rarely are threads closed. Nor are they selectively closed to new members. What can happen is that posts from new members can need approval; that’s the anti-spam measure. And I’ll add that constantly reposting the same thing while waiting for approval doesn’t speed up the process.
