How long is it taking to get approved?

[dangough]

It usually takes a week to get a story approved, but my last submission seems to be taking a lot longer, are others finding this or is it just me?

 

[Nezhul]

are you sure it's not rejected?

It has been three days, sometimes less, for quite some time now.

It just says pending next to the submission, so it has not been rejected and I submitted it nearly two weeks ago. I did send a message to Laurel, but no reply to that either.

Did you click the "pending"? That pushes the story to the end of the list apparently.

It can be from a few hours to about a week or so. This shit needs to be stickied, she does all this shit by herself, I'm not even sure what Manu does- they are the only two people that run the site.

Manu takes care of the servers and programming.

If you try to contact Laurel don't use the e-mail. A PM is the only way to get her attention.

Wow, that is seriously impressive that she handles all of the story approvals herself. Hats off to Laurel!

 

[HeyAll]

As I've said before, if all stories were submitted quickly, then your story could debute on the third page or at the bottom of the hub.

Lots of threads like this lately.

Maybe it's just that it's the busy season for Laurel as well as the rest of us. Maybe it's the impact of the contest entries, with resultant backlog.

Who knows? Seems to be a trend, though I'd guess a benign one.
