That depends on how busy the moderators are. Worst case, it could be a couple of hours. You could try posting it again, and avoid posting links to other sites and using words that are likely to trigger spam filters. Maybe that'll do the trick. Otherwise I'm afraid you'll have to have some patience.

Till a moderator logs on.

The amount of moderators varies per region (APAC, EMEA, Americas).

Sometimes it can be just minutes, sometimes a few hours.

Sorry for the inconvenience. We are working on ways to reduce the trouble.

Kind regards,

Please do NOT post things more then once.

If I notice a topic started twice (or more) and I have limited time to go over the queue, I will leave both in queue and give approving other topics priority (as double posts asks for sending the user an email to not do that again and I do not always immediately have time for that). Plus in the end we will reject and delete one of the two topics anyway.

Fair enough. But the point was that it shouldn't end up in the queue in the first place when you're careful about what you post. This discussion didn't for example.

This discussion did end up in the moderation queue. I personally did the approving .

Reason my first reply to it took so long was that I did some things of my "day job" in between.

Everyone who currently does not have an X amount of points will see all his/her posts end up in the moderation queue (unless you are a Qlik employee, marked with a star).

I stand corrected.

So folks, just be patient. Don't double post please.
