Dude, relax. It was an honest question, I'm not snapping my fingers and telling them to hop to it. I only have 40 something points and I don't submit things on a regular basis. No need for the hostility...
Yah know, I probably should have worded my first post a little better. I probably came off as a prick. I was simply asking if the Wiki mods had the weekend off, literally. That wasn't meant as a "get going already", I was wondering if I should stop checking to see if my submissions would go through because they wouldn't until Monday.
It seems that is not the case and people are easily angered around here. I should know that already.
They're volunteers. They're not getting paid. They don't need to take the weekend off, but they could if they wanted. Hell, they could take off a few weeks if they wanted. :)

They could even take off,
FOREVER!

Very true. To the OP: It is a 24 hour queue. There are other users on the site, it is not just you submitting. And different days will have different waiting periods.
"back in my day it took sometimes upwards of 3 days and that was if you were lucky. "
That's when there was over 20,000 submissions. A lot of them duplicates because people went crazy.
You should thank Andy and the other site programmers/designers for creating a script that took out all the duplicates. The queue then went down to about 8000. Then us Wiki mods took care of that.

Back in your day? :P

Yup, all just volunteers - so are the forum moderators."
You would think you guys are the ones being payed. Because most of the forum mods (I LIKE SOME OF THEM I SWEARZ) are as up tight as a dead hooker in rigor mortis.

if u no wut i meen"
The forum mods on this site are much more flexible than most sites. Namely gamespot because I would get suspended for a week at a time for saying crap or fuck, But lets not get into that.
A couple of my submissions were taking a while over the past couple of days, but I just had 3 or 4 accepted within an hour or two. Keep up the good work guys.
Sometimes they let you out of the "cave" long enough to furiously exclaim "NO MORE GRASS SUB--"; But alas, you are dragged back inside knowing the horrors of concept pages are waiting for you.

No, no. Don't get me wrong Mr. Racecar. I love the freedom I have on this website, I'm just saying that there are two mods specifically that kind of piss me off. All the wiki mods are cool, though.

Where is Oni?"
Mr. Racecar, so that's how it's gonna be.
Oni is off in his own little wonderland right now, drunk.
"So I take it you weren't a user at the beginning. Because those were around 5 days. lol 5 hours is nothing.
Just know that the guys browse the site, do other things on the internet, ect. They don't just turn on their computer to mod.
"
Yes, I was. I simply don't live and breathe Wiki. But today I saw an amazing video for Web of Shadows and felt like reinforcing that page and add onto my point count.

I stopped being pent up a while ago, I'm all good now. I just don't like Player1. Period. Valium would probably kill me what with crossing antidepressants and all, but w.e.
