Approved images in less than 24hrs

Hi All,
Anyone noticing some images getting approved in less than 24hrs while older ones in review still sit unapproved and waiting for approval?
Did I unlock some special level that if I upload certain images they will get approved right away?

I have also had some photographs getting approved overnight, i.e. in less than 12 hours, while others sit overlooked at the back of the queue for weeks or months... Adobe's Moderation process is not quite as predictable as it once was; it appears that "first-in/first-out" is no longer the rule.

If you did reach level 123589, all your submissions will pass in 2 seconds. I'm kidding, but I found your level metaphor really hilarious. Every so often, you could have that impression.

 

Since a certain time, it happens that some assets win the early moderation lotteries, and nobody knows why, or what the greater picture behind is. I would say that you should be happy for those images, even that it makes planning for seasonal assets quite impossible.

That's been happening for a couple of weeks now. The older ones will be reviewed eventually.
