My first story got published last week and suddenly it went back to "pending" today. I highly doubt there was anything in it that would have violated any site policy. Is this a glitch or what's the deal?
 
Has it come back to you with a rejection notice?

If its status doesn't change in twenty-four hours, or you don't get a notice, I'd resubmit it as is, with a Note to the Editor explaining what's happened.

It's either a glitch or a rejection (reported by someone for some reason).
 
Didn't get any kind of rejection notice, and it had gotten about 1000 views before going back to pending. I'll give it a couple days and see what happens.
 
Exact same thing with me. Submitted and after several weeks it was published. A week later, after getting 5,000 + views I saw it was "sent back". I had thought about resubmitting. I'll try that. Did that work for you Pordow?

Check your story status list. If a story gets reported and taken down, it will be bounced back to you with a generic rejection notice, usually in the form of questions. It's up to you to either submit an edit, or argue your case if it's a content issue.

If you do nothing it will stay down - it's In your court now.
