UPDATE..see end of post...account does not have sufficient privileges to perform this action...for no reason.

I posted a review of Life is Feudal due to the misleading Free to Play. I also posted in the discussion thread. Didn't insult anyone, didn't curse, just asked what the deal was. So when someone doesn't like what you say, or if it's regarding Steam too around needing to label a game correctly I get censored? I can't thumbs up or down comments? I probably can't do more reviews? EDIT: for clarification, in the title of my post has the error message I get now when performing actions. The review thankfully is still there, no reason why they should delete it, but there's also no reason why all of a sudden I'm restricted now with no reason.

UPDATE: Now I can interact with reviews etc., looks like my "privileges" are restored. It's either AI backfiring (and you see that alot on other platforms i.e., YT) or I got reported by someone and it activated that. Scary either way.

Yep, I'm sorry are we not allowed to leave negative reviews anymore? On top of that people found it helpful to let them know unlike me who downloaded and installed it and saw it subbed me even though "it won't sub me until I pay".

This is the downfall of human discourse when saying things people don't like now gets controlled. Congrats on contributing.

What is the actual problem? You're not banned from the forum. Your review wasn't banned for that game. So what censorship are you supposedly facing?

"account does not have sufficient privileges to perform this action" message when I interact with reviews thumbs up or down when I tried got that. No idea why. No idea what other actions I am not able to perform.

The review wasn't deleted, that wasn't my point, the error message I get NOW is the point.

It's possible you upvoted a review that got banned. This will restrict your voting privileges for up to 30 days.

Weird, to be restricted for that. I never upvoted such a crazy review that would get banned. I don't think it was that, I think someone reported me because they didn't like what I said. Either way, looks like I am not restored again.

I'm hesitant to really interact online because of stuff like this.

Yes, that could be it. Steam is under maintenance usually at tuesday 4 PM Pacific and issues can last up to two hours.

You got to admit that the error message is quite misleading to the uneducated

You call that "server degradation" and you're completely sure of it. Ok...very intelligent.

Imagine getting a reply reported for responding to a sarcastic banana split sunday (note I have to use neutral safe language here)...thus proving my point that censorship backfires even on steam and some people's tolerances are that of a pop tart.
