What are these?
I'm seeing these in multiple threads here in forums, and when I click it, it redirects to my own profile. I haven't commented on these threads. Is it a bug on the site, or should I be worried?

Maybe they’re the seeds for an ARG lore event tied to Halloween in the forums.
4th wall meta breaking with vigo or the Arkham troupe scrawling comments into sheefs of paper they find that look like dialogue about their own world viewed as a video game.
Once Halloween rolls around, and the bleed into “our world” strengthens, they populate into little lore snippets and comments from some characters, maybe even cries for help, or just keeping them sane.
And those interested can score the forums for all past instances of those previously obscured comments.
Or just some automated troll bot that’s trying to automate spam into the forums consistently being circumvented/bypassing the ability to be removed completely by moderators, and or a new forum bug regarding moderator post removal not working correctly.

These are popping up all over the place. It's like the comments have been removed and replaced by them… reminds me of The Institute from FO4, kidnapping innocent comments and replacing them with something… else…

lol… Yeah, I wouldn't post two threads with the same op question, but sometimes I think the same kind of comment can contribute to multiple threads :D

Agreed; intentional or not, I think it would be interesting to see BHVR to do that :D
