I think maybe the "self-serving" reason should automatically report as well to deal with these users. Because when I see these spambots, the primary reason I see for downvotes that people select is the "self-serving" rule, because that's what it is. I think most people think of spam as meaningless posts, which these posts aren't since they'd be acceptable if not for the "self-serving" rule so posts may not be getting reported effectively.
Currently we have an issue with the down vote reason functionality which will be corrected shortly. I'm not sure if you have read a recent blog post in /t/blog about our upcoming voting functionality update but there is a lot of details inside that explain how we plan to improve on the current concept.
