What might prompt a DU account being under review?

It was about a month or two ago, the day after I had 2 hides within an hour or so. From my understanding, it takes more than just 2 hidden posts to have the admins review an account.

In any case, the "account under review" status lasted less than one day and everything was immediately back to normal, save for the two hides I'll be wearing for another 30 days or so.

If someone's having a bad day & posts a couple hideable posts, at least they're stopped from temporarily going off the rails & racking up 5 hides & getting a 3 month time-out.

It's nice when the admin review is quick, too.
