That is, if there was *really* an immediate spammer problem to be had. I recall Brad Patrick's breathless essay about how inundated we're getting with spam, and then the G11 abomination occurred, but the actual necessity of such a reaction was never really introduced - we seem to be extremely trusting of those in the home office, don't we?
We were inundated with spam. We still are. G11 is a necessary tool, and in any case we could creatively delete blatant spam as vandalism anyway. The vast majority of G11 tagged articles *are* abominations, unlike G11. Spend time looking at CAT:CSD some time.
