Why does spam get archived in hours?

Why does spam get archived in hours? Repeatedly across numerous groups I try to flag spam in Linked-In groups and I find that the message is already archived. I only found out about these posts because of the daily Linked-In emails, so these posts are being archived in less than a day, often in single digit hours. How could this be? The link associated with this post was meant to be an example, but the message board post is http://www.linkedin.com/groupAnswers?viewQuestionAndAnswers=&discussionID=134866365&gid=1268377&trk=eml-anet_dig-b_nd-pst_ttle-cn&ut=0WocEMpkIQr5k1 ...

Originally shared by The Linux Foundation Support Linux by sharing this video!
