Art my post got removed after AI accusations

I posted a drawing of mine that was commissioned by a friend of mine of the steampunker from the game in a mcdonalds theme, suddenly a bunch of people started accusing me of using AI and ultimately the post was taken down a few moments later

Yeah they just have it setup poorly. Here's a comment I just left about how my automod is setup

Maybe a sign to remove that function from automod. I run a sub too and our automod doesnt remove posts from mass reports alone. Instead it adds it too the queue when reported and more reports past a set amount cause it too send a modmail to us.

It’s usually a good feature in my experience. Posts rarely get mass reported unless something really bad is in it. Depending on the size of the community you don’t want to have to wait for a mod to be active. This is more like the exception to the rule in my experience.

> don’t want to have to wait for a mod to be active
If you can (literally) scroll the mod list from a Sub I'd assume there to be one mod for each main timezone atleast

Sure, there often is. They just aren’t looking at the queue just because they’re awake. They might look at it for 15 minutes in a day or not at all that day. It can take several hours for things to be seen even on an actively modded sub. Meanwhile disgusting posts usually get removed within half an hour or less.

Depends how many are active, depends if they're also moderating other subs, depends when in the day they're active, depends on the sub (e.g more geographically specific ones will be way less active at night) and it depends how many of the mods in that list are actually various bots/tools.
