Why can't there be certain people like Noodles and BJ whose posts don't need moderating? - that way announcements could get through promptly.

It just seems odd to me that there's this list which you are very concerned people post their announcements to, but which is read by few
There are 55 on it directly and then the 250 or so people on main see it indirectly. I don't think 300 is few.
