[admin] sorry guys!
hiiii!
WELP. so i just realized there were a bunch of posts submitted for approval in the queue from as far as like a week ago and i never noticed. i rely on LJ giving me email notifications for when posts need to be approved. i never manually check the moderation queue. and for some reason LJ stopped giving them to me? i don't know if it's a glitch, etc., but i never got any email notifs telling me i had posts to approve so i APOLOGIZE PROFUSELY! i wasn't ignoring anybody, i promise! i just checked the queue now (thanks to texasfandoodler for bringing it to my attention!) and i approved all the ones in the queue. (so sorry for the mini spam on your friends list)
but yes, hopefully it's just an LJ glitch and they'll start giving me the email notifications again. or maybe it's because the community doesn't have a paid account anymore so i don't get the emails? i'm not sure, LJ changes their rules and limits a lot. otherwise i'll have to manually check the moderation queue daily and since i barely do that in the first place, it might take awhile to get in the habit of doing so (but i will!)
additionally, some members have unmoderated posting, which means they can post without moderator approval. these permissions were given before my time as a mod so i haven't questioned them. so if you see other members posting and your entry hasn't shown up for awhile, that's probably why (also probably because i'm not home yet so i haven't gotten on my computer to approve said entry :P).
if this becomes a hassle in the future (which i hope it won't, LJ pls), i'll talk to 1miracle and see if we can try taking the community off moderated posting for a bit. hopefully a lot of the frequent posters would know the posting rules and all possible new ones would read them carefully before posting. though moderated posting makes for such a cleaner, prettier, and more organized community flow. :')))
anyway, sorry again! please don't hesitate to visit the ASK THE MODS post whenever you have a question or a problem and i'll answer them as best as i can, thank you!
