Content is part of the definition of the BI. "Substantively identical". The BI really only applies to third party cancels, or when calling for a UDP. Any service can use different criteria. For example, Altopia bans all unsolicited commercial advertisements, and a one shot post like that isn't spam. However, Altopia doesn't call this "spam"; such is just banned here. -- http://www.dextromethorphan.cc.
