Changes on the forum website

Today I discovered that a large number of icons that I had collected earlier had disappeared and spent a really long time on it. After that, I went into the settings and found that many of the icons had simply disappeared. You can check it in your profile. What do you think about this? What is the reason for this and what will it mean in the future?

Thank you for answer. What about old badges here and activity on old forum website? Will it eventually count?

These will be completely new badges. The old badges were the ones that came with the forum theme by default.

The old forum was the Labs forum, this is the Foundation forum. So nothing from the old forum was transferred here.

Please tell me, why does every bridge post now require confirmation? I wrote a lot about it in my personal messages, but no one answered me.

Because there were too many scam and spam posts. We made this decision to protect you.

A very good idea!
but sometimes posts wait more than a month for approval

It’s probably not approved because it’s inappropriate. That may be why it remains pending.

Please tell me how you can change the current situation and leave the lists of those who need constant confirmation of posts? I have taken into account all your comments about this

Hello, I understand your request, but unfortunately, we can’t remove the requirement for constant approval at this time due to the high volume of scams and spam. This process is essential to protect our community and maintain content quality. Thank you for your understanding.

Tell me, please, can the need for constant confirmations affect something in the future? For example (this is hypothetical) if there is any encouragement for forum participants, could this have a negative impact?

No sir. We just do not approve spam and scam messages. That’s all.
