So did I! I've cleaned up a bunch of "violations" but in many cases the Google Policy Centre just lists a megathread... how do you even figure out what they might have found objectionable in the 462-page A Deeply Fractured US thread lol. Not 100% sure on a way forward yet, but I can say with certainty that if I can't turn the advertising revenue tap back on, the ads will all go!
 
@Mike Bobbitt Post what you need cleaned up in the moderator area as some of us are on leave and bored. There's stuff in those megathreads pre-rule changes that likely is getting flagged by AI algorithms.

Why not just nuke the whole mega thread?

Is it worth keeping if it causes this kind of trouble?

Most of the time the adsense stuff is picked up by AI, without human judgement. For instance, it picked up obscene language in our thread about folks giving N@zi salutes which was universally against those morons. There's a manual review process but we did a bunch of our own AI-enabled clean up to remove older threads (like 20 years ago old) that could have problematic posts.

I'm confident our new rules meet Google's policy thresholds and we're just playing whackamole with old content posted pre-rule changes.
