Purple 'Private' Tag on Sprinklr.

Never seen it before but it was on one of my posts, why is it there and what's it mean? Can my replies still be seen?

@VonPunk Posts tagged as private can only be seen by the author and IMDb.  It is an anti-spam tactic which has pretty much eliminated spam from Sprinklr since its launch because there’s no longer any audience for the spam.

Sprinklr’s systems automatically tag a subset of posts based on certain (undisclosable) criteria. There is nothing to worry about if your post is not spam, as soon enough an IMDb team member will set the post to public (or they will block and delete the account if the post is spam). 

Hope this helps.

The post can't be seen if it's tagged private, but the tag tends to go away eventually.

It would be good to know for sure why it happens.

@Peter_pbn​ Thanks for that answer. First time for me, just helped someone and commented to let them know but I guess for now, they won't know I did it. I edited my post to see if that made any difference, then deleted it completely and reposted it to see if it worked, but alas not. Well going on your information, I'll just hope that my post becomes visible and hope my reply to you can be seen haha. Cheers.

Edit: Not sure if staff helped but the 'private' tag is now gone and the post is visible in just under an hour.

I've been posting on this work computer for months. So, that and my IP address can't be an issue. Posted here in this IMDb Poll thread for more context. There ain't any obvious change in my profile and this is the first time I've seen this post status/indicator.

Note: This comment was created from a merged conversation originally titled What does Private mean on https://community-imdb.sprinklr.com/ post?
