Being banned for 3 years without any kind of human double checking in a matter of over 1000 days is not reasonable.

Honestly, who cares? It took him 3 years to notice because he posted maybe once or twice a month. How are the admins supposed to pick up on that, by checking the activity of every single spam bot on a regular basis? He'd have figured it out in a couple weeks if he posted regularly.

Why? The longer a shadowbanned bot keeps posting the better, because that usually means the spam bot doesn't realize it's banned. It sounds like the user was quickly unbanned after contacting an admin, which is a lot better than some other companies.
