I'm sure that the answer is "yes". The issue dates back to August 2015 (Q58521).
@evgeny and @floeff are 2 paid administrators for this site. They can make changes here; very few others can.
Update 24 February 2016:
The Admin Evgeny (user 5975) was last seen on ask.libO on Jan 16 '16, which neatly answers why new-users are spending so long in Moderation (Florian Effenberger does not spend any time on this site, whereas Evgeny is paid to work on the site). However, you may find it difficult to verify this information yourself...
The information given in the paragraph above is obtained from Evgeny's Profile (ask.libreoffice.org/en/users/5975/evgeny/). As I type these words, the links for that Profile page is accurate but, once I press the "Save edit" button, they may change to be for a 2nd user also called 'evgeny', but instead is user 6044.
(I checked whether my statement above was correct; the 'ordinary' link remains accurate, whereas the 'special' link (using '@evgeny' to make a Notification link) has reverted to user 6044.)
It seems, then, that there are multiple corruptions in this site (see also Q63207), as it should not be possible to create 2 users with the same name, and especially when one of them is an Administrator.
Update 2:
After his comment to this reply, I had an email from Alex & also from Sophie. Some of the info that I've given is wrong, so I'll try to restate it correctly.
Evgeny is the originator of the AskBot software, and is also employed by ask.libo to perform technical work on the site. I also recall him performing Admin work on the site at the time of the spam attack in August 2015, which was the source for my statements in that respect. However, Evgeny does NOT work on the Mod Queue.
Sophie pointed out that she works on the Moderation Queue each day. She has been ill this week, which has been one reason for recent delays.
I re-iterated my personal view to each of them that--unless spam levels are too high--that it would be best to remove pre-emptive moderation entirely.
Update 25 February 2016:
As best as I can tell approx 100 pages (thus comprising approx 3,000 questions) have been released from moderation some time this afternoon. The following is extracted from an email that I was copied into:-
there have been some issues regarding moderation of new posts on ask.libreoffice.org. We found out that the moderation queue contained different items for various moderators. We will try to get this fixed ASAP.
On the other hand, the spamming situation seems to be much less intense at the moment, so it was decided to deactivate full moderation for the moment and go to audit mode, meaning that posts will be made public in an instant.
In other words, the folks at TDF have listened & acted. Hoorah!
Administrator Evgeny remains AWOL. He ... (more)
I've also noticed a lot of editing of posts by moderators, which is off-putting. The Ask format has its problems, AISI, but the best thing would still be to basically just let it do its thing without micromanagement.
The FOSS Office Suites proposal on the Stack Exchange network might be of interest.
The new user may not get a sufficient answer if Alex Kemp has his way! He will call your question answered, even though the answered question he is referring to is asked in a completely different and round about way, therefore really a different question, or if the answer looks right to him, a seasoned LO user, even if it makes no sense to the one asking the question, in fact raising many more questions. Maybe he should stop playing god, and use his time for good and give some answers himself!
This is not a q&A board: it's a closed dictatorship. I can't even up/down votes, because I don't have "points" which I cannot "earn" since so many questions are closed.
