I totally agree that Fade spamming Yik Yak is bad, and pretending that they were wronged by Yik Yak is ridiculous. But that wrong doesn't make this strange censoring right.
It's especially troubling that the posts aren't removed, but rather, get softly automatically downvoted over time, making the process almost invisible.

Seems perfectly reasonably to balance the expression of users with "fading" spam. If a post really has strong merit, it can still get some visibility, whereas a deleted post can not.
