I genuinely remember a time where I could get actual help when I posted here. Now most of the time it’s arrogant squidwards claiming they’re better and gatekeeping helpful information, rather than actually helping anyone. Oh and of course the people who “ragebait” constantly.
seriously, this isn’t Ro-ddit.
ampposters ASSEMBLE! also i do NOT agree with this forum feature request
Honestly, couldn’t agree more. It stopped being funny months ago and it’s just making the forum hard to read at this point.
Until (or if) the forum staff adds a specific “Troll post” flag, the best thing we can do is use Flag > Something Else and type a quick “Obvious troll post/low-effort spam” note. The community moderators usually catch those if enough people report them.
The worst thing we can do is reply to them, even to call them out, because it just bumps the thread back to the top of the feed. Best to just flag and ignore.
the ampposters are back forum mods pls add this
The moderation team should seriously consider moderating posts that talk about the same repetitive topic over and over (example: optimization), are unnecessarily long (on purpose) or use cringe and unprofessional quotes, symbols or mention names of these so called “DevForum Clans” like TNLO.
This place, especially Development Discussion is no longer professional, interesting or fun when you come across AI generated garbage every 2-3 posts, usually posted by the same group of individuals.
These too promote outdated styles of writing and encourages needlessly micro-optimizing every at the cost of readability and literally just anything else.
I’ve so far reported many of their messages and had them successfully deleted but nothing has been done to the users themselves.
and troll posts are still here bruh
Happens, it’s unlikely they will go away anytime soon unless Roblox does something drastic like improving forum moderation/surveillance or introduce something like Lounge again.
This might be a naive take but from what I’ve seen there are only like 3 people doing it currently, maybe if they took action on the few doing it right now, it would set a precedent to stop posting those types of posts.
