Are surfers really reading the rules?

Assuming you mean "Are submitters really reading the rules?" which I (and prolly) everyone else thinks you mean; sad fact is that as you get more submitters, you get more freesites that are frankly, absolute shit.

Nothing you can do except delete/ban/send rejection emails as and when, and thank the lord that as a smaller place, you get less crap running through your system than places like Tommy's Bookmarks et al.

Getting more shit = (hopefully) getting more *good submits*, so rejecting those means that of decent submitters, they'll get more accepts.

Good submitters are absolute gold dust; so keep those submitters happy, and fuck the rest = a good LL. Submitters are happy, and so *should* the surfers be. If it means rejecting 90% of submits... so be it.
