After years of using this forum I started to have problems with my writings not appearing on the frontpage and the mods not answering my messages the day I started criticizing EA.
This may very well be a coincidence in which case I genuinely apologize for the implied accusal. I still think itâs important to mention it in case other people are having the same problem.
EDIT: After commenting this I suddenly lost a lot of karma due to downvotes:
EDIT 2: To respond to the reply, itâs not all messages on the intercom, and itâs been happening for a bit longer than the last couple days. But I can totally understand that you are overloaded right now so fair enough Iâll drop that point. More importantly, itâs not just happening with the comments on popular posts and not just with comments either. I suddenly lost a lot of karma but I wanted to show some proof that I didnât make that up so I went to settings and changed it to âshow downvotesâ and set it to batch at the nearest hour. That way I could make a screenshot of it and provide some proof it happened.
EDIT 3: I think itâs back to normal, and for the record I donât think the admins themselves went back and downvoted me.
Hi Bob, 1. We have been responding to your messages in intercom, I donât know what you mean. Itâs true that our moderation team is slower to respond than usual because we are overloaded right now, but I think you can probably guess why we are overloaded. 2. You are probably commenting on popular posts and we donât show all the comments from those on the Frontpage. I think we never show more than 4 or 5. The forum is open source, so you can look through the code to see the logic we use to decide which comments to display, if you would like. 3. I donât know whoâs downvoting you. It looks like your notifications are batched, so you got notified about them all at the same time because your Vote Notifications setting is set this way.
