This just really doesn't make any sense at all. Sorry to say, but you're losing it. It just shows to me how much you care: you don't.
Have a nice day.

I think there is an automated systems now which seems to kick in if we tag a moderator. It just happened to me in the support forum and it was extremely swift, it must be automated. I'm just posting this to see where this thread is hiding.

Ah yes, it's in Off Topic area, of course now I remember….. where it belongs.
I think you were right @Alienscar about what you predicted about King stepping away from the community. They are obviously just using AI now to run the community in 2025.
Game ruined, community ruined. Well, I'll hang around to try and compete in All Stars, but after that there is nothing left now for any of us. I will miss the friends I made here in the past two years.

I haven't really seen any signs of AI being used to be honest, but I am not taking much notice @christinewupp but something does seem 'off' about the forum.

Are you sure? Nothing has happened when you tagged PummyRaj in the 'I completed the Win Streak for 8 Levels but zero points?' thread.

As I did myself at one point suggest to introduce a better automated system to spot spam and to answer repetitive posts I should not complain about it when they do. It feels odd and a bit creepy, but it might work in the long run, so I'll try and keep our of it now.

Check this thread: Look at the speed with which these guys are interacting. Am I just paranoid?
I wouldn't say you were paranoid @christinewupp but the speed of posting looks more like spam rather than a bot. The person isn't posting about the All Stars if you read what they wrote. A bot isn't generally used to conduct conversations, but is used to post disruptive messages without interaction with the forum members.
I backed her up by tagging PummyRaj and asking why Courtney's posts were back and the removal was so prompt, it was within seconds!
Again, I wouldn't automatically assume that the speed of the action implied an automatic moderation system was in place mostly because if an automated system was in place it would have prevented Courtney from posting in the first place.

Thanks for getting back to me and making that analysis @Alienscar . I wonder now if it is related to this:
There were a few hours a couple of nights ago when the community went down and every person with a login would only see the original discussion posts and questions, everything else was blank. In case you were unaware here is a thread about it:
Ever since the Forum not showing replies issue something has not been quite the same. But it's King's Community and they don't owe us anything. I just hate it when my own posts being deleted into oblivion. I have made friends here and I don't like the changes, but that is my problem. Thanks for listening.

I do sort of agree with you @christinewupp that something seems odd about the forum lately and for all I know you might be correct in your suspicions.
I just hate it when my own posts being deleted into oblivion.
Well when the forum stopped showing replies all of my comments were still available to be viewed in my profile, so I didn't think anything too drastic had happened. Personally I think the thread you linked is a bit misleading as it wasn't a case of only new posts being visible as every first post of old threads were still visible and it was just replies that had vanished.
There were a few threads on the subject that I noticed, but as ever with this forum not where you would expect.
The moment I tagged the moderators every single one of those posts disappeared instantaneously, as did the entire thread where myself and cookiemae had commented. I wonder now if it is related to this:
That isn't unusual as when a person is flagged for moderation their whole profile is suspended resulting in all of their activity being removed instantaneously.
One thing that interested me was the appearance of a 'dislike' reaction. I did wonder what that was all about as that is very out of character for this forum. Did you notice it.

I did not receive this feature @Alienscar . I only noted it from Carol's thread. It almost seems as though it was introduced to her in error. As you know I spend a lot of time the community and read every post. I don't think I ever got it or it must have been there only very briefly, or I would have noticed it.
That thread you linked almost proves my point that something is wrong! What a strange thread, with random players asking random unlinked questions (that happens of course because they join the first thread that pops up for them) and then those automated replies by Diamond Lim. A lot more threads now receive automatic closure as well and turn into "read only". There seems to be an automated systems to efficiently spot duplicates I think. As I said, it's not all bad. Some of these changes are improving responses and efficiency.
