The link doesn't work because (I guess) it assumes you are on lemmy.world wheras you are on lemmy.today. Seems like a bug in the AutoMod bot.

The reply still goes to an inbox, but nobody has eyes on that inbox at all times. "You will not get a reply" is really code for "we aren't checking this account, so contact us in other ways if you need to". If someone happens to be logged into the bot account at the same time you are sending it slurs or whatever, they're going to notice and take action.

It's mostly just them covering the bases of "I sent you this, and you didn't respond!" and "You said you wouldn't read messages sent there, why am I getting punished?"
