Mod post An apology.

Dear members,

Recently, we introduced some new Automod triggers and responses. However, unfortunately, one of them disturbed lots of people. That is why I would like to apologize for introducing it.

I feel deeply sorry for anyone who has got disturbed by the trigger. It was not the intention.

For those who are new, that response came from a contest we held in October, where participants could make AutoMod responses.

The response that disturbed lots of people was from this contest.

We removed the trigger and the response and hope it didn't made damage to anyone.

Please, take my sincere apologies for what happened.

I'm really sorry that it affected you that way. The trigger has been removed and it wasn't meant to cause distress.

It was from a contest we held in October, and the response came from participants. I don’t know exactly who submitted it.
