@chyna “And I have seen perfectly reasonable questions that some people flag as spam and I don’t get it.”
Sure, some people are a bit quick to flag a question. It’s unfortunate, but we can’t control what other people think or post. When the accusations prove false, we remove them so that the question can progress uninterrupted.
“Do the mods just go by what one person thinks is spam?”
Of course not. There are plenty of questions that have been flagged but were never pulled. The whole reason we use human moderators instead of an automated system is that a single flag—or even a whole slew of flags—is not enough to determine that a question or an answer should be removed.
@Stinley I also like the comments. I used to participate them before I was a mod, but now I just try to get rid of the spam as soon as possible.
