Hmmm... I think you're right. few seconds is nothing compared to two hours writing the post.

if they put some thought into their content however though. as this would take 3 seconds to get through.

Hmmm....

The rep has to be high enough however that they are likely going to face it several times before it disappears. As is, my 100% vote will take a new user over 30 rep already. I would like it to last a bit more than one post.

I agree with this now... something in 40s maybe?

The last problem is that what someone considers scam/spam isn't considered like that in someone else, if there was a big list of things considered spam here it'll be great.

For example, some people think posting referral links in every comment is completely normal, other think just the mention of referral links as spam...
