With computers the word "default" has a specific meaning: if you have not manually set a value, this is the fallback result that occurs when you selected "nothing".
"List default" matches that meaning. When user joins a list, they are assigned this option. Nothing has been manually selected by a moderator for the user.
Do any other uses of the word match this definition?
An action that involves a selection or choice from a drop-down, and only occurs because of a selection or a choice, is not a "default".
"standard accept processing" "regular accept" ... yeah, those could be possibilities.
