12Mods don't decide featured posts on meta. That is the sole discretion of staff.– MagischCommented Oct 22, 2019 at 12:55

1Right, so, if that is the issue then surely they could've just followed up with inital flag or comment and mentioned that instead of ignoring them. Have they learn't nothing that ignoring people doesn't help in any way?– Script47Commented Oct 22, 2019 at 12:56

@Magisch sam reasoning applies. Cannot mods apply the tag also? Mods could on SO as well. It suffices as an answer for both groups. Or would you like me to edit it?– user310756Commented Oct 22, 2019 at 12:56

They can, but have refrained from doing so. Deciding what gets featured is not in their scope of authority, even if nothing in the interface prevents it, if I recall correctly.– MagischCommented Oct 22, 2019 at 12:56

2@Script47 I honestly think people are snowed under and prioritising, not deliberately ignoring. I think if we got a insight into their working days we'd probably all be shocked.– user310756Commented Oct 22, 2019 at 12:57

7Journeyman Geek's answer provides a very different explanation, and one that appears to be based on SE-specific experience / fact. Your answer appears to be based solely on speculation. Both answers can't be correct, so that would explain why one answer is downvoted, where the other is upvoted.– CerbrusCommented Oct 22, 2019 at 13:33

1@JJJ: This answer doesn't cover that though. It says that the mods are too busy to handle the flags... Mods don't do "featured" flags on MSE.– CerbrusCommented Oct 22, 2019 at 13:43

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. stack-overflow), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
