Anyone else noticed this with NEW users

I have noticed that NEW users are not able to see all of the users on SW when they open their account. I am not sure why they are doing this.

When my friend started a new account I could see her but she couldn’t not interact with me.

I submitted a ticket and they told me this.

I have noticed this happening again with NEW accounts. All the legacy accounts (no NEW tag) can see the NEW accounts and we can comment on the posts but NEW accounts can’t see all of us.

I found this statement in regards to an algorithm in place to restrict contact between users.

I believe that they are doing this for NEW accounts. I have asked in another ticket but I was ignored.

Once the NEW tag is lifted that restriction seems to go away.

Now click on this post and tell me if you see my reply here because I posted the same thing on this post but no one can see it.

I definitely see an increase amount of new users on this site. Whether they are current users, I don't know. I try not to comment on their posts in case they are trolls.

@Barefooter25 chances are they won’t actually see your comment anyways

@iamonfire696 I clicked on your link and I can't see your reply anywhere on that post.

@Barefooter25 I know because I am one of the people that this new user can’t see

@iamonfire696 That is strange. I just left a comment on that thread and it was received just fine.

@Barefooter25 I haven’t figured out what the parameters are for the algorithm.

So far the patterns make no sense to me.
