Accidental removals by automod
Hello world,
Due to an error in a spam filter, Automod accidentally deleted all comments for a period of about 15 minutes. We are working hard to restore them. You might get a notification that your post was removed with the reason: "automod: suspicious activity", please ignore that notification.
Sorry for the inconvenience, and thank you for being on the Fediverse.
With regards, The LW admin team
Ah, is that what happened.
I was wondering why so many comments were removed! Thanks for the update
The automod is a finicky golem composed of good luck and hope! It does a tough job.
My personal mod log is thousands of entries due to a automod wipe and restoration.
I think maybe some a manual intervention should be required if too many entities over too long a time or from too many users is indicated for removal
