A note on "permanent" spam labels If you ignore the warning and get the spam label, it won't be removed until you show a long period of good behavior. This maybe several weeks or months until we re-evalaute your account and you've posted enough so that we know you're not spammy. (we are still building this system so its effectively permanent for now)

How do already labeled accounts get out? Accounts that we know personally, or friends we brought that have been labeled? Vouching for a real human would be nice. Nice work regardless

vouching is something we will add in the future. the problem is that spammers operate in rings and will vouch for each other, so we need some way to prevent that.

Allow vouches only from people with a certain level of social capital. (A high threshold where it won’t be possible for a spammer to achieve)

I think this is basically already there, look how quickly @beachmfer.eth got out today, likely due to actions by @sartocrates a.o.. Not beach doesn't deserve that but it feels bad for everyone who has been labeled spammy for weeks and still is just because they do not have the connections to vouch for them to get them out.

That's likely the direction we will go, but what happens when someone with high social capital vouches for someone and they start acting spammy again. Do the person vouching get dinged?
