It's not nice to see an old member resorting to these methods, and only reacting when he gets tagged and his posts are deleted. There may be some truth to his explanation for why he did it, but the fact that he didn't inform anyone in advance, and that he participated in the sig campaign at that time definitely doesn't work in his favor.

I know there have been other cases where Legendary members have been caught in the act of using AI for their posts, but mostly they claimed it was the result of using certain online translators or spell checkers. @nutildah has written about this in his AI topic several times, and the point is that many of these tools today use AI, and that instead of corrections, they actually add content that can then be detected as AI.
