Why the wait? They’ve slowed down so much
I suppose it’s because they have so many backgrounds to check, but I agree with you. My one background is the last thing I need to publish the next chapter of my story.

Did you get yours approved yet? They said Patience is virtue, but four days is a bit much. The ones that been waiting the longest should get bumped up. It’s literally two SFW pics.

It actually depends, there was one time I uploaded like 3 backgrounds, and 3 hours later they were approved. And today I got 2 backgrounds approved, and I submitted them like a week ago. You can never know

I don’t think so. I only have one background that I NEED but I guess patience is the key. 
While this isn’t a diehard rule, just a pattern I have noticed, the people at the bg review team tend to work overtime right before a contest deadline then seem to get a break right after. Then the week after the contest closes they tend to resume their normal around a week approval time. This week starts their normal review speed.

How long did you have to wait? The typical wait is 3 days.
I had to wait for a week but I get it I mean I can’t move on tell it is but they also get like 10,000 backgrounds sent to the daily sometimes I get them done in no time and sometimes it tacks awhile. I agree with HumanBean though they just got done with contest so it should be back to normal now.

Hi, I recently uploaded some personal backgrounds and I’ve waited long enough and the background has not yet been approved. I understand that the same problem have even the other writers, can you solve, please, faster? Thank you.
No there’s nothing anyone can do, but wait. It’s getting very irritating, but I guess there’s nothing we can do.

I’m glad i’m not the only one who having this issue.
It been four days since the last approval and I haven’t gotten a approval.
You can start the story even if your backgrounds have been approved?
You just can’t publish
Or are you ready to publish and waiting?
