Why does posting an ad have to be so hard

I just tried to list a car for sale and it's still not up. Posted it to a mod for review yesterday morning. I forgot to hit the state button which is likely why it's not up. My location is listed in the actual ad.

No worries I'll spend another 20 minutes listing it when I get a chance because a mod can't take 1 second to hit the VA button

There's slightly more to it than 1 second to hit a button, and insulting the Mod team to get attention isn't exactly motivational. Care to try again?

Ok, sorry I offended you.

Please explain the process and then we can figure out a solution to this problem and make it easier for mods to input the location if a member forgets to check the box instead of the painful process that the member must go through of relisting the ad.

Thanks for listing my ad

No offense intended, none taken.

There are multiple steps Mods have to take before they approve an ad, the state label is just one of them. These are done to help keep the ads clean enough to use for users, and to help to protect the users from fraud. Finally the volume of ads is greater that you'd expect, and going through them all takes time. Not to mention that all of the Mods are volunteers, and all work full time jobs. Sometimes it just takes a little time for us to get through them.
