Garbage collection

The bot constantly records all posts/comments it has seen in the DB to avoid re-scanning them. It will constantly delete any column older than 7 days.

Filter collection

The caught spam in the bot will be recorded in the DB. There's no way currently to retrieve this info but this will be possible in the future as it will be useful for analysis and Machine Learning
