    The purpose of the bot is to make the poster aware of the rule, so they can edit the post. I don’t personally see how one comment “trashes up the comment section”. Another reason for not deleting the posts it detects, is because it’s a bot, and bots make mistakes.

    Let me know if you have any more feedback (:

      DM the poster if you want to make suggestions privately.

      Doing it the comment section is pedantic bot spam.

        The bot is also being used by mods to monitor any posts flagged by the bot. I am working on a discord version of that system, so that’s still a work in progress.
