For some reason over 6 of my guides have been flagged as spam in the last 24 hours. I don’t know why this is happening and they are all flagged for the same reason, spam. These guides are not off-topic, 100% about GKC, and have been liked by many people. They range from yesterday to 7 months ago on guide creation. If anyone knows why this is happening or a possible fix please tell me. It’s concerning me. Btw i will close this when the issues are fixed.

Maybe people just have a general hate

Most likely mass reporters. Don’t let them concern you; the mods will understand. You’re a good person and don’t let change in the face of mass reporting. :]

You should know that only staff or discourse meta can help you with this.

Well… I’m not sure that we can help you… Out of interest, what are the guides? I saw that your pyramid guide got flagged…

That’s strange.
They all seem pretty on topic to me. Especially during that time period, it was allowed.
A few guesses.
Person that hates you flagging everything
Misunderstanding
Person believes it’s off-topic

The important thing to understand is that it’s multiple people, not just one person flagging these posts.

its either A or D which is a system glitch

So instead of person, it’s people.
Because once you flag something, the flags stay forever I think. (Correct me if Im wrong)

it does until staff reviews it

I feel like discourse needs a thing to show who flagged you. Cause it would be kinda useful. (That would probably cause so much drama tho)
But this is really strange, these guides are fine, so I wonder why that person flagged it, their reason.

Why Was It Flagged What Did It Say??

This is what jeff just said, im a little confused on it.
the thing is i never really flag, so why are my post being removed.

So basically…
it was cause there are so many arguments and flagging each other (probably cause of spite or off-topicness, lets hope off-topic) that it just hides each other posts instantly thinking that it’s also off topic.
A little strange. Though, maybe people just flag you only. You don’t have to be flagging each other for one post to automatically be hidden. It only has to be one party in the situation.

true, im just confused on one question, why? It makes no sense, like i try not not start arguments and i rarely ever flag.
