How come the moderators a so fast to moderate a question yet so slow to "unmoderate" it once rectified?

1 Answer

[mod says] Because we all have other jobs that require our undivided attention. The pending questions pop up intermittently, but it isn’t like we jump, immediately, when they arrive. We get more than 300 email notices per day. Imagine getting and reading that many emails. We’re trying our best.
