It’s 7 hours and counting of no new posts approved on vf. So, I looked at the profiles of the regular mods and they all had last visit around the same time (noon Friday).
Then I looked at some LinkedIn pages and there is another IFI with just 7 employees:
There’s a post from two hours ago on the hidden EP subforum by Pascal, but it’s also possible that that subforum doesn’t require manual approval, I haven’t posted anything on the old forum since The Happening.
EDIT: And before anybody asks, you’re missing nothing by not having access to that subforum. It’s less “secret back room where we share strategies on how to take bribes for world spots” and more “anybody know where to buy Raspberry Pis that are in stock?”
I was talking with Dan last week and he said that was always the plan. He said he was hoping to get his last couple submission in so he can make a video before worlds.
