Seems a bit harsh to neuter the !bapcsalescanada@lemmy.ca community for almost a month because of an automated action?

Not exactly its fault if it just caught and mirrored some spam from Reddit…

EDIT: I see the bot is now unbanned, thanks!

    With that name, it seems its entire purpose was just to spam advertisements from Reddit.

    Good riddance to bad rubbish.

      I don’t see a good solution to this, either the bot reposts the sales on a timely manner before you miss them, or you get people to manually post the sales. However with the current volume of users here I don’t see the second option equaling or surpassing Reddit in terms of usefulness.
