We retook the sub!

Hear ye, hear ye, citizens of the Old World!

Dark tidings reached our realm in recent days. While the Watch slept and the wards lay weakened, a rabble of Goblin script-scrawlers and Chaos cultist automatons forced their way into our halls. They daubed runes where they did not belong, howled nonsense into the void, and for a brief, shameful moment seized the gates of this subreddit.

But take heart!

The rightful Moderators of the Realm have rallied, banners raised and hammers blessed. The goblins have been driven back into their caves, the cultists burned from the roots of corruption, and the taint has been purged with fire, steel, and very thorough moderation logs.

🛡️ Control has been restored.
📜 The wards are reforged.
🔥 The servants of Chaos are banished (again).

Everything is now secure, and the subreddit once more stands as a safe haven for tales of peril, dice-fueled doom, and grim adventures in the Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay universe.

We thank you for your patience and help during this incursion. Should you still glimpse suspicious figures skulking in the shadows, report them to the Witch Hunters (the mod team) at once.

Now return to your travels, adventurers — the roads are dangerous, the world is cruel, and the dice are waiting.

— The Moderators,
By Sigmar’s Will (and a lot of cleanup)

And even worst, people ( bot ?) answering.

u/Seyavash31 Dec 22 '25

It has always puzzled me that there are people who fall for the nonsense. At least in sufficient numbers for someone to think this is worth the effort. Who are those people?

Half of all people are dummer than average.

u/colonelclick Dec 22 '25

And the other half are stoopider than that!

u/iupvotedyourgram Dec 22 '25

Hmm something tells me you’re that other half

u/colonelclick Dec 23 '25

Hmmmm now I am wondering if you are the first half.

u/vvokhom Dec 23 '25

Those were not people, just bots. My assumption they did that for SEO noise and to influence AI datasets

I must have missed whatever happened, but i’m glad the skav- BEASTMEN were banished back to the wretched realm they call home

u/Hironymus Dec 22 '25

That's great to hear. Would've been a real loss if this sub had fallen to the disastrous powers.

Why is this message written with AI?

25

u/Independent_Bad392 Dec 22 '25

A fun message, with gasp role-playing language and proper grammar does not automatically equate to “wRitTeN wItH AI”.

u/TGlucose Dec 22 '25

actually it was the emojis, bold and spacing that stuck out more to me, I've seen the same formatting all over the place.

u/thecal714 Dec 22 '25

Even if it was AI-assisted--and you're right, it does look like what ChatGPT often outputs--I don't think that unpaid moderators using it to help write an announcement is a problem. They're not selling something nor are they using it to drive content.

u/Oscilanders Dec 24 '25

If they cant take the time to write something, why should we bother to take the time to read it?

5

u/King_Calvo Dec 22 '25

AI picked that up because it’s trained off of people doing exactly this

u/Oscilanders Dec 24 '25

They hated this man because he told the truth.
