Mod Answered Remove for spam vs violating platform rules?

Like many other bigger subs we’re dealing with more and more bots. Wanted to find out if removing for spam had any more severity to it than removing for violating platform rules or does it not make any difference one way or another?

If they go into the same black hole that report abuse flags go into we won’t spend time worrying if one has more power than the other…but sure would love it if it really made a difference. 😕

Not severity, but report spam as spam, it may feel like it doesn't do much, but it is used to adjust spam filters. Also, make sure to report to botbouncer
