I've been on CP for 12.5 years now. And yet, almost every single comment I post is "held for moderation" because it is suspected of being spam.
Fine, but why?
Is it just me?
Don't you think in 13 years if I was a spammer it would have been known by now?
Just asking.

Chris is just trying to stop guys like you who go for the long con.

It's not you specifically - I've was caught quite a few times until Chris changed the rules.
The scanner is heuristic, and as it learns it does pick up false positives but it should learn to ignore them after a while. It doesn't normally take us long to moderate a message as spam or not spam so it shouldn't be too bad.
And unfortunately, we can't assume that because someone has been here a good number of years that they won't decide to post spam. People start companies, get new jobs, write a blog, all of that - and that can trigger them to start spamming here.
Trust me, you don't want to see the site without the anti-spam - sometimes it was impossible to see anything but the cr@p they posted...

I keep trying to post a list of the words that cause the blocking, but it NEVER goes through?

They say ev’rything can be replaced
Yet ev’ry distance is not near
So I remember ev’ry face
Of ev’ry man who put me here
I see my light come shining
From the west unto the east
Any day now, any day now
I shall be released...

Isn't that called "Updating your FB status" ?

Don't you require photographic evidence of updates for Facebook?

I've always wondered when somebody would be stupid enough to post the contents of the toilet bowl on Facebook - surely it's only a matter of time - and if Facebook would indeed censor the post...

Unless you have a really large @$$, it would just be "Game of Throne".

No, that is called "Game of Gross".

while reading the EU software development salary survey,
oreilly 2016 european software development salart survey
[^]
i wondered if HTML/JS/CSS should be counted as one language or not.
Yes, technically they are 3, but how often does anyone use them completely on their own?
HTML on its own, yes.
JavaScript, maybe - node doing some fancy server side stuff.
CSS, uhm, does this do anything without HTML?
If write some JQuery, you could end up writing all your HTML as strings and push to screen.
point being, from the survey average used number of respondents languages was 3.6. Well sure, if split them as 3 languages.
but how effective are you? Not as effective as someone that knows Bash, Java and Swift (i was gonna put c# and java, but wanted 3 somewhat different languages)
So maybe for future surveys, those three (HTML/JS/CSS) should be combined as 1 or 1.5 languages?

Two of the three is not a programming language at all!
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.
