Wtf does this mean?

[©ThΣKämikαzeMΏήkΞ¥s™]

Everytime i write a thread, this always happens before my thread gets posted:
"This topic is waiting for our automated content verification system. It will be temporarily hidden until it is confirmed that it contains no harmful content (such as links to sites that attempt to steal information)."
What does that even mean?

It's a quick check to detect any fishy links, scams, etc.

EDIT: holy crap they did something

It's a new thing that's just been implemented today without our consent or knowledge. Welcome to the future.

It's supposed to curb scam links that pop up periodically but it not only checks for links in a post... it checks for every post!

[Xautos]

i'm guessing it checks posts for any words that it can automatically report on to the moderators and they look into it. but without anything official from Valve, there is no way to know what the system is for.

It means you can't ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. Putting links that are blocked in there, no referral codes or advertisements. No excessive profanity. No use of derogatory terminology directed to people.

I am so happy for this I can barely wait. Because I bet if you post enough objectionable threads you're going to get banned automatically.

you guys thought the moderators were not doing their job so apparently steam listen. And now a robot is in charge of your every action here.

You reap what you sow I say

But the fact is: I don't do those kind of things you mentioned. Sorry if im being arrogant this time: Or is this a stupid moderation abuse or moderation is mistaking me for some kind of criminal because i am none and i always contributed to the community... I always paid for what i wished and have been a great costumer.

This is happening only in OT afaik. I'm not getting said messages in other forums, at all.

It's the new AI they implemented to watch over us, they call it Big Brother in some places.

Does anyone read that though? I most certainly didn't. Actually, I just discovered this and have no idea what any of this stuff is until a couple of hours ago.

[Ⓥenom Ⓢnake 🐍]

My thread took three extra seconds to post but since I didn't do anything wrong and went straight through.

And if this applies to individual post as well I'm not getting any of that. Because I'm just so awesome

[Jazz]

I hate this so much

But with all the scamming on these forums I guess it's a necessary feature

sigh

i'm all too acutely aware of that, it is their service after all and we are just customers. same way i know of the rules.

They banned the word "♥♥♥♥" again?

EDIT: Nope. Still there. Cheers.
