Posts and account not always restored when flag from Discourse AI spam detection rejected

,

Investigating here there are a bunch of interesting stories.

In the case of:

I can see the user got silenced multiple times by AI.

Somehow we saw the sequence of:

  • System flagged
  • Flag rejected
  • User edited
  • Spam system picked it up again
  • No flag was created cause it would be a “Duplicate”, so system transparently did nothing.

Let me have a chat with the staff experience team about this to see how we can properly resolve it.

We need to allow AI to re-flag stuff cause spammers can be very sneaky, just cause it was good to start with does not mean it is good forever.
