When I delete a comment and bring it back by undeleting a new moderator choice shows up... Spam. What happens if you click on spam?
Does the comment show up for review by Hub police?

mentioned you in my latest hub, don't worry that is just a taste, I plan on making you famous! are you excited?
If you click SPAM then the comment will be reviewed. However, another hubber leaving a comment and the rules for what is SPAM, is the difference. I would have expected you to bring this to the attention of HubPages if it's become a problem for you.
No, it will not be visible.
As I said above, your better course of action, should have been quiet and unnoticed by the hubber you are now talking about in a public forum??

It could have legal ramifications? Unknown, because of a lack of knowledge of the entire situation. But, email HubPages staff to see what can be done.
Just my thoughts on it.

If you deny someone's comment does it hurt their hubber score? Does it hurt you own hubber score if you deny the comments of others? Does it hurt the hub score if the hub has a denied comment?

The good news is that it seemed to have been caught in the...

How does one know whether a comment left is spam related or not, other than the obvious?Other than the obvious, when one goes to a hubber's profile page, one can tell if it is solely spam; however, if it is not obvious, how does one know? When HP asks one to decide if a comment left is spam...
