For the past couple weeks we’ve been checking each new comment and rejecting ones we think fail the criteria in the comment warning. (This ends up being something like 9 comments a day. For comparison, there’s like 2-3 comments from newish users each day that actually seem to meet the bar)
We’ll hopefully have the “rejected” section of the site up soon so that people can evaluate whether they think we’re making reasonable calls here.
(To be clear, when I say “not reduced the number of posts”, I mean “reduced the number of people submitting posts”, not “posts that get accepted.” We’ve also been rejecting a few new posts a day)
