I would like to know why some questions get pulled for the slightest error while others don't pulled at all?

I have noticed questions with bad spelling, and or punctuation errors, don’t get pulled for editing while mine seem to get pulled almost instantly, are mine flagged?
Or does some mod not like my questions?
I have had questions pulled because they simply didn’t like the way they were worded.
At times it feels more like I am back in Elementary school than on a Q+A site getting people’s views and opinions.

Face it we are all here because we want a live persons view or opinion on a question.
If I want to know the capital of some middle eastern country I will just google it.

This sounds like something you should ask the mods. Everybody has a different perspective on what should be flagged, or what might be important or not. With only three mods, and the level of busy we all have in our lives these days, I doubt it’s personal, @SQUEEKY2.

Just as an aside, I hope your shingles are all cleared up and you are feeling better for the holidays.

You happen to ask when mods are available. Please don’t take it personally. It happens to all of us.

Why not focus on how many of your questions get through untouched?

I do think it is a matter of mod availability but also i think they may be easier on new folk who are asking questions from a troubled place who may not be well educated. I don’t think any of us seasoned Jellies gets a free pass. Stop using your cell phone while hugging your children, Squeeky, and maybe you’ll do better.

I used to get mine pulled out all the time. Either my writing skills have improved, or the mods have lost hope in me. Hopefully, the former.
