yeah, my point was basically to inform the ops of the afflicted relays so they could silently limit the scope of these spam posts without outright banning the accounts (so they could keep spamming to the void without them even noticing) but all things considered this could effectively signify the beginning of shadowbannings and/or isolated instances like what you can see currently in mastodon (and one of the main reasons why it sucks so much ass). it's an interesting topic surely, and weighing the pros and cons of the various options should be considered with care
