Reject vs. Mark as Spam in Zendesk Moderation

Understand the difference between rejecting a post and marking it as spam in Zendesk moderation.

What is the difference between rejecting a post and marking it as spam?

Rejecting a post simply deletes it from the moderation queue, while marking it as spam moves it to the spam queue, where you can choose to suspend the user and delete all their posts.

This distinction allows you to handle unwanted content more effectively, especially if you suspect a user is consistently posting spam.
