Moderator Queue ON <--- anyone use...

...this feature at all ?

Just wondering...

Because how it works now:
The box with text is something like 1/50 of the normal display size,
even with this small font ( difficult to read ) it's only big enough for very small posting.
Imagine, there is a half site text, to read it you really need to copy all somewhere else:
1) click in the box,
2) ctrl-a ,
3) ctrl-c ,
4) select any editor window
5) ctrl-v
---> now finaly you can read the text, decide if you want to approve it;
anyway you would need to have a very special editor to check the links if there are some,
else every link: copy and paste in some browser
6) select vb moderation window
7) select validate ( or delete )
---> that all just for an option to edit "on fly",
while editing of other ppl.'s postings is for most admins is probably NO-NO thing,
better just to delete; for instance i would get mad if some admin/moderator
would edit my posting; i would say - better dont approve it then,
if you think it's that bad...
( at least he should post then why he edited it etc. ... so it's not an easy thing anyway )
---> go on with the next post awaiting approvement, the same 7 steps :/

To say it's "not efficient" would be like to say nothing...

What would be really efficient imo:
just display for admin all unapproved posts in the forum along with approved for moderator
displayed in different color or very "can not miss"-icon,
the text in different color ( or icon at the post ) in threaded,
the subject in forum view in different color ( or icon near this topic ) in forum view,
the forum name in board ( or category ) view in differnt color or with special icon.
That is my dream <--- one can dream
It would not only save clicks, but the moderator would see the post in context,
what can make the ( right ) decision approve or not much easier !

And i think there are not so many moderators,
who dont read the board else then while moderating ( just as work )
most of them read the board, so mostly they would
read these postings anyway,
if not - they just can check few places where different colors/icons left.

Guess it would be to much work to implement,
but if there other ppl. using moderation ON at all,
could someone make a hack, so at least the moderator can with one click
"maximize" the unapproved posting ( in the same or even better in new window )

Hm... if even this is too difficult,
is there at least some way to change the size of this box to site site-wide and higher ( longer ) ?

By the way, the link "Located in" dont work...

Thanks in advance
