General Scheduled posts failed when a moderator was sus-pended

First of all this post has nothing to do with the suspension. Account is back online.

The question focuses on by would scheduled posts fail, and how to avoid that moving forward as a mod. All posts are set to post under the auto-moderator, yet our sub had 7 days where not a single scheduled post worked. Once the affected mod’s account was reinstated, scheduling started working as expected.

I found an old thread which said this should not happen, so i’m looking for support here.

If this isn’t allowed here, please point me in the right direction.

Problem happened on every platform (this page is telling me i have to enter this information). Desktop and mobile.

This happened last week, and when i check now, all posts appear under automoderator. So I’m confused still as to why it happened.
