Basically we do one of three things when a link came in: 1. ban it if it's spam 2. accept it if it's AMAZING and 20% better than the other links on the page 3. let it sit in the recommend links section for further review if it doesn't fall into #1 or #2 above. The problem is, of course, that folks don't know that we've looked at it. We're working on a "thanks for the link" response that just leaves it in the recommended link box, but also lets users know we looked at it. all the best, Jason We had a problem with our workflow previously that we’re fixing.
