I think the time varies as someone has to personally approve it. I'm not sure how many mods/admins have that power, but i have a feeling its a limited power to only 1-2 people. It can be minutes or a day, as there is no set schedule any of the mods/admins follow as to when they sign in. Perhaps its just a case of bad timing. At any rate, the poster above, 1_still is high on the pecking order, so let him know if it's not resolved.
