Is this a legit Xojo post?

Got this today. It looks odd, especially this discobot thing:

Well, since you shared the link we can ALL click on it and see who wind up with Russian wives. :slight_smile:

That’s an automated message that the forum sends you when you level up and gain access to more advanced features. Nothing to worry about.

Of course it was a private message so nobody can read it. Didn’t think about that. I thought it was odd for two reasons:

  1. I don’t think I’ve posted anything on this forum for about a year (or more). Gone because of health issues

  2. It was posted by discobot. Sounds odd.

Here’s the body of the message I got from discobot:

Reply to this message with @discobot start advanced tutorial to find out more about what you can do.

Hi! To find out what I can do, say @discobot display help.

This forum is running Discourse and the bot is called discobot.

This could have been triggered by logging in, hitting an anniversary, or a number of other things.

This forum software is a whole game per se… How many awards can we get at most?

29?!
That’s a moderator-only level :thinking:
I am at 18; I’m now old enough to vote :grin:

Where do you see your score, or your number of awards, or whatever it is you’re talking about?

Edit: Are those what this forum calls Badges?

17

Yes, I’m assuming badges are what I myself meant by “awards”.

18

Then I have 5.

Like a post, quote a post, edit a post and a few other things easily get you a badge.
