To clarify more about that particular post...

Several moderators became aware of the post at the same time, and within a span of 2-3 minutes the post was discussed, the action agreed upon, and one mod took action while a second mod replied with concern for the poster.

This particular post was so out of character, and the moderation team was concerned with the content of the post, as well as being concerned with the posters well being. That is why there were 2 actions - editing the content, and showing concern, and those actions happened at almost the same moment (within a minute).

The "last edit" time on the post in question was several minutes after the post for concern because the post was originally edited quickly to remove content, and then re-edited several minutes later to clarify (adding a "reason for editing").

I hope that helps clear up any concerns.
