Stack Exchange has its own spam detection and prevention system. If I understand its design goal correctly it prevents spam from even being posted. What SmokeDetector finds are basically the posts that passed their tests.

  • Are there statistics available that show that SpamRam got better by keeping spam out due to the successful efforts of the SmokeDetector and its human slaves?
