So how are we feeling about the spam button now?

[NewsBot]

For me the spam button seems to be working well -- spam posts are getting flagged pretty fast. The initial arguments have died down between those whose definitions of spam differed and everyone now seems fairly happy. Are we all happy?

 

I know some have complained about still seeing the spam post on the front page, but personally it doesn't bother me; they'll drop away in due course. I'm in no rush.

 

I've noticed that the spam content is still present in the RSS feeds, but I guess this is harder to change -- how long do you delay a post from the RSS feed before you can be sure it's not spam?* For me it's not a big problem, but I access the CoffeeHouse mainly though the web page, rather than through a newsreader.

 

Overall, I think it's working.* What does everyone else think?
