FimFic: Approval times [silly]

I see many posts asking about the long approval times.
They fail to realize all the work required to approve a story.

Most people are anxious to get their story approved. Some people, like myself, is happy for the time it takes.

The moderator reading my story is usually the only reader I get, so personally I would find it rude to complain about the time it takes.

But for those of you curious about why it takes time, I can now present the detailed process for story approval.

1. Proofread and commented by all the moderators.
2. Filed to Hasbro lawyers for a brief evaluation of fair use.
3. Carved with chiseling tools into granite (backup media).
4. Printed on paper, put in a bottle, thrown into the Atlantic Ocean.
5. Whoever finds the bottle sends it to the moon.
6. After its return (full length journey), United Nations votes on its approval.

But after your first story has been approved, you must make sure to click the proper buttons for the next story to jump through the same hoops. If you don't, it will just bypass it all and appear within a couple of minutes or so.

And for the curious: My first story took 7 days to get approved.

This post somehow has about the same amount of escalation as that one "How To Survive A Bear Attack" video on youtube.
