Thanks for your response. Apparently we’re facing the same issue as this poster here: [Send edits of approved posts back to approval queue - #9 by dacap](https://meta.discourse.org/t/send-edits-of-approved-posts-back-to-approval-queue/231377/9)

I understand Watched Words → Silence only applies on the spammer’s first post. I checked the spammer’s first post (with a simple [data explorer](https://meta.discourse.org/t/32566?silent=true) query: `SELECT topic_id, id, last_editor_id, version from posts where user_id = <> order by created_at`). The spammers are keeping the watched word in their post title in the very first version of the post, and even then the first post is not getting flagged.

I checked the code and I see that the silencing is indeed applied on the post title as well

So I’m a little confused why we’re observing this behavior in practice :sweat_smile:
