[Meta] Update on flag sensitivity

Hey all,

Quick update here: I’ve received a few signals that our moderation system is tuned a bit too sensitive. When looking at this, I also noticed that some new users were getting automatically silenced due to our robots misidentifying bad actors.

Moving forward we should see a higher number of flags before a topic automatically locks. I went ahead and unsilenced a few users who were misidentified as spam bots.

Please reach out if you have any questions.
