    Hey all!

    I've been attempting to post something over in the ROM hacks section, and it's in the Hacks Studio area. More specifically, it's in the "progressing" hacks section. I've submitted a work-in-progress thread over there, and it's STILL waiting on approval. I'm not trying to be impatient or anything, but it's taking a while. I'm positive that it's the right place to post the thread in, and it's something that's going to change the lives of just about everybody on here (as cliche as it sounds).

    So... How long does approval normally take? One of the main reasons why I ask this includes the fact that I did attempt to post it in another hack section, but it never went through.
     
    It should take only about 24 hours, so a full day. Just keep in mind that the ROM Hacking sections are busy, so there could be a lot of threads for the mods to go through. If your thread hasn't been approved in 24 hours, you can send a message to any one of the moderators of the ROM Hacking section to find out what happened.

    EDIT: Taking a look, it seems like your threads haven't met the requirements for the section. Your best bet is still to send a message to Spherical Ice or Christos to get advice on how to fix your thread so it can be approved.
     
    Approval generally takes up to 24 hours. After that amount of time has passed, feel free to contact the moderators it pertains to, in this case either Christos or Spherical Ice. ROM Hacking can be a bit high traffic for the most part, so just be patient. :3 But yeah, go ahead and contact one of them if it's been a full day.
     
    Thank you both for your replies!

    I've contacted Spherical Ice about this issue, and he has confirmed that the post hasn't met a requirement. Namely, it required at least six legitimate screenshots, of which I have now uploaded. That's the only requirement he told me to fulfill, so here's hoping that approval happens soon! Thanks for the help!
