If you don't here something by the end of the day, try again and you will get this message. "you will be eligible to request moderator position again on 6-5-2017." or something to that effect. They usually make you a moderator right away.
Thank you for your response, and I'm not worried about the news being posted or stickies. My concern is for new eyes looking for DD. I have been in this for many years now and feel it is about across the finish line with the new BOD. I read Doms "Connecting The Dots" for many years, and Vorlon's and many others great posts. Take care and good luck.
