…I think… 😉
are there ever posts that just never go through because the are never approved or deleted, just waiting for another mod, or because a mod always does the current posts and never gets to the “back” posts. no. all posts are either approved or deleted. some are approved and then deleted. others are deleted and then approved (rare). some posts especially very long posts can sit until time permits to review and others are on the edge and time is needed to think about it.
