The fun escaped when a single doofus suggested ("asked") if it was AI.
Such comments without any hint of evidence should result in a ban.
Otherwise, posting content of any kind will decrease, approaching zero.

Wtf? So commenting “Is this video AI” (clearly a question) is now an accusation?
And on top of that it should result in the user banned???

If you didn’t like a thread like this because it “ruins the fun” you can collapse it, but you don’t get to control people’s speech depending on how you personally like it.

And even if it does really ruin the fun, I don’t see a rule against that. And asking that question certainly doesn’t break the “Be respectful” rule.
If anything I found this thread informative because of the responses to the initial comment.

root level comment wasn't a question, it was a statement

"Is this an AI video" is definitely a question even without punctuation, but even if not, banning someone for something so miniscule seems pretty extreme especially on dbzer0.
