You were too quick for me Andrew, or I'd have removed my stupid comment. TSS just irked me because their salespeople pressured the editorial guys not to allow any mention of DZone Refcardz. Dirty pool, IMO. DZone has always been happy to carry any story at TSS that our audience wants to vote up.

the comment's fair. the signal to noise ratio over there is pretty low at the moment.

Personally I'm astounded by the success of the anti-spam measures. I had always accepted that some level of spam was inevitable, since the alternative would lead to too much wheat being removed with the chaff. In practice what I observe personal is 100% spam being block and only the smallest amount of quality needing to be approved by hand. The result is a clean queue and a huge improvement in quality of the site. Again IMO, but I have been impressed.

You've been killing spams here for a long time, jDave, so I'm really glad to hear you feel the new tools are an improvement. Thanks!
