What happens if I start a thread in this forum?

In summary, there is a moderation queue in this forum that seems to affect gold members who are not HH or SA. Even retired staff members are not immune to this queue. The issue has been ongoing since the forum upgrade.

Yes!

(For the record, I pulled this out of the mod queue).

Mods should be able to skip to the front of the queue.

This has been a problem for some time now in this forum, I believe since the upgrade. (Correct me if I'm wrong on the time.)It seems anyone who is a gold member, but not a HH or SA gets all their posts in this forum sent to a moderation queue. Really weird. I wish there was something I could do to help, but it seems like all I can offer is moral support and cheers:

"WOOT! Go Greg, you can fix everything! We're here for you during these times of hardship! Go Greg!" :biggrin:

Maybe you're thinking of 'Survivor', but it should work here, too. Well, at least we won't bump you off.
