Question

Does a spam count if it is been hidden after being posted?

Answer 1

So what you're asking is 'if someone spams then hides their post, does it still count as spam'?

Well PM, Mods and Editors can still see your post even if you've hidden it, so yes it would still count as if you spammed.

I'm not sure why anyone would want to spam then hide their post anyway, they will probably still just end up getting banned or receive a warning, regardless of whether or not they've hidden their post.

It depends how much you have spammed, but if you have hidden your own post, the Mods will probably just give you a warning and tell you not to spam in future, but again it depends on how much you have spammed and how severe it is.
