AI Detection Flagging - Refusal - 09-08-2026
I have a suggestion.
It would be nice to have some sort of plugin that will flag content as most likely being written by AI. Maybe like a small AI badge in the top right of users posts when it believes it is AI written grammar / grammar patterns.
LinkedIn introduced this not long ago: https://fortune.com/2026/07/31/linkedin-seems-like-ai-slop-button-billions-automated-comments-attempts/
I think it would be useful here, especially since apart of the reason why people like forums is the genuine conversations you can have with the community. I personally feel disconnected when I know im reading something that was written by AI.
Thoughts?

I like this idea, but I am not sure it's warranted quite yet. There's additional security concerns if we were to rely on an API or something more sophisticated.
Definitely keeping an eye and spot-checking in the mean time.

The golden era of MyBB, the software driving the forum, is long gone; nowadays, we're lucky if they even manage to periodically patch medium-to-high risk bugs.
Unfortunately, short of a custom (paid) plugin, I don't think it's possible.

I'd certainly consider it more if we were being flooded with AI bot posts, but for now I'd agree. Every new feature I add is something that will require maintenance later.
