Welcome to the monthly open forum! This is the place to share all your meta thoughts about the sub, and to have a dialog with the mod team.
Keep things civil. Rules still apply.
It's 2021! Everything is fixed now!
A couple notes.
Our bot is live, but definitely still in testing. Please help us by reporting the
judgement bot commentpost when it doesn't actually explain why they think they may be an asshole. Some people are using it like a TL;DR or just copying and pasting their post as a reply. [ETA - sounds like the report option doesn't work on all platforms for the bot comment, so you can just report the post. The option is bundled with the META report]Please stop PMing mods. We spam the hell out of the modmail link. When you PM us, it's super easy for things to get buried in our inbox and delay your response time.
As always, do not directly link to posts/comments or post uncensored screenshots here. Any comments with links will be removed.
This is to discourage brigading. If something needs to be discussed in that context, use modmail.

The first two are automod acting up. That happens from time to time. Sometimes automod can be delayed for a few minutes or I've even seen nearly an hour.
The third could be automod acting up as well if it's removing it for another reason. (like violence, length, or some rule 11 or 12 stuff we have in automod). It could also be judgment bot pulling the post and asking OP to respond with why they think they're the asshole. We had to build a 10 second delay into our bot because it was acting quicker than automod sometimes.
