    I think mine was about six weeks, but that was more than a year ago when this site seemed far busier.

    Over a month, that's for sure, but I don't remember exactly how long. It's been a long time, after all.

    Two months for me. Then again, I did submit it during the christmas season, so that may have held back the staff considerably.

    For what it's worth, we do have a pretty big backlog, combined with being a bit short staffed right now.

    Our optimal time is a week. But right now it's running 3 to 6 weeks, and some take longer than others.

    You'd be surprised, otherwise folks hop in just to start abusing PM for ill-advised meetups and the like. Maybe even crazies handing out their address to children. It can take a while but it filters those types out, thankfully.

    As for my case... it took quite a while, maybe a month or so, but I'm in no hurry so the wait didn't matter. I wanted to go ahead and get it in case but hadn't had a need for it yet.

    I understand you want to filter them out, I just think this is to much.. Oh well.
