I think answers taking a long time in not a Good Thing. Imaging this scenario:
Q: Where can I learn about regular expressions?
... someone answers perlpre withing 2 minutes...
... 6 hours go by because no moderators are online ...
A moderator comes online, sees 30 Q&A to weed through, spends an hour on it, doesn't get to this one. In the meantime, 10 other people answer.... moderators get bogged down having to approve EVERY answer before they get posted.. people get angry at moderators because no answers are being posted... etc...
Cheers,
KM
