What might prompt a DU account being under review?

[Quantess]

It was about a month or two ago, the day after I had 2 hides within an hour or so. From my understanding, it takes more than just 2 hidden posts to have the admins review an account.

In any case, the "account under review" status lasted less than one day and everything was immediately back to normal, save for the two hides I'll be wearing for another 30 days or so.

1. See answer on this issue in ATA:

[div class="excerpt" style="display:inline-block; margin-left:1em; margin-right:2px; border:1px solid #bfbfbf; border-radius:0.4615em; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #bfbfbf inset;"]If you get two hides in quick succession, you get flagged.

2. Thanks! That explains that.

3. I think that feature can sometimes save us from ourselves

If someone's having a bad day & posts a couple hideable posts, at least they're stopped from temporarily going off the rails & racking up 5 hides & getting a 3 month time-out.

It's nice when the admin review is quick, too.
