auto-approval shouldn't even need to be turned on in the first place. if only site mods actually gave old mods their mod back without coming up with some bs excuse, we wouldn't have the problem of slow-ass approval queues. site mods have better things to do than to approve posts for this stream. most of the mods they did choose are inactive. spacefanatic and the like, other 3 active mods can't be online 24/7
