Did all the co-op staff die?

I've had a couple of ads awaiting approval for 20 hours now...

I know it's a free tool, and I can't moan - but look. I am!

 

What kind of stupid question is that?

 

Dude its like being a dmoz editor... you just dont get to it asap since its not a paid job. Give them a break, they are doing this for free!

 

Main problem is that once the cue is cleared someone bombs the network with another 50 ads, so it is just a never ending task

 

The smiley face should have indicated I was having a little fun.

 

Volunteer as an editor ....

 

Just be patient... the coop is quite popular so there are loads of ads that need to be reviewed all the time

 

I have Even then you cannot auth your own ads.

 

Then get the backlog cleared so that the other editors can get to your ad!

 

I'm not an editor.

 

Shawn could you give us a indication please how large the backlog is?

 

My last one took 30 ish hours if it helps? I'd donate money to the ad reviewers time but my $50 divided by 50 ad reviewers probably doesn't cut it

 

Working on it... be patient...

 

yeah its been taking a little while for me too but I love co-op so I can't complain

 

30 hours seems almost instantaneous compared to the 2-60 month wait for a DMOZ listing.

 

lol 2-60 month if-you're-very-lucky.

 

the editors are doing great work, they are not only approving the sites quickly, but also make sure only high quality site get into coop.

For example one of my sites was rejected with a very useful explanation: "your site sucks"

 

I think he won't tell if he is.. you know these people are hiding like the dmoz editors..
jk, nothing said is true..

 

Are you serious about that?

 

nope, but it was funny

I had a couple sites rejected for certain reasons, like bad title, short description etc..

heh I can't even manage my little directory, it has hundreds of unapproved submissions all the time
