If you don't vote, the site will die
@yagmoth555 Ok, but the concept of the SE is the community moderation. Mods are for human exception handling, not for micro-management. The mod decisions are decisive, single-person decisions, but this has also a disadvantage: they are much lesser defendable. Furthermore, if their activity will be the overwhelming majority in the VtC reviews, it will further distract the remaining reviewers. Finally, only they will moderate, and we will have essentially an irc channel, or a newsgroup. I don't think it would be the SE way.

Referring: Have we given up on the review queue?. Motivated by the same solution for the same problem on another site.

What is happening to the VtC queue?
@Ward Thanks :-) In my case, there was an external constraint, too. But I was only one, and a decision requires 3-5 voters.

Benefit of closing this question?
I think the reason of the closure was that your question looked as a debug question, but it was really an idea about this /etc comparison thing. I think you overreacted it, you could ask the same on the Unix SE any time and it will be probably answered. But make it more clear that the focus is the /etc comparison! As an ordinary debug problem, your question would be unclear (because you didn't explain, why that workstation doesn't work).

Have we given up on the review queue?
I think it is a good idea. Sites suffering similar problems, it was suggested many times on the SE meta. The SE doesn't want it, as I can remember their arguments, they fear the review quality will decrease. In my opinion, they could easily fix it by elevating the audit frequency, and this is what they should do. Note, I think there is also a different, but related problem, and it is that I think also the mod customs / policies should be adapted to reflect the changes in the world of the system administration and the site visitors in the last years.

Why can't you "follow" or at least "favorite" other ServerFault / StackExchange users?
A workaround: you can set his network-wide activity as bookmark or as your browser start page, although I find this type of love a little bit... uncommon :-)
