How big are your queues?

Yeah, a large blacklist is pretty much necessary if you want to keep submits open to all. But with all the cheaters & autosubmits I'm wondering if it doesn't make more sense to keep a smaller partner list instead. Like they say...quality over quantity.

Verbal - I think most LLs keep some sort of "partner/preferred" list - we just dont advertise too much about it except by private requests. There are so many things you can do with submits before they get to the review que with IP/Whois checking/dupes and multisubmitter checks - that we rarely get over 200 submits a day that make it into the que - after that its a matter of getting it pared down based on content, quality and all the other things that reviewers get paid to do

I would say that with the recent sucesses of some LLs with partner accounts, and the increasing fraud and autosubmissions in the last few years, it wont be too long before most LLs get to that point

my queue is always small, but it seems mostly the trustable people submit. In fact, I think i have only had to decline 5-10 sites in the last 2 months.

One of the reasons is the only place i post my submit url is in my signature here

thats a good way to get mostly trustable webmasters to submit.

i dont get many submits each day, maybe 10 at each of my linklists, but they are all nice sites, built by nice people that visit this message board, call me weird but i dont like sharing my traffic with people i will never talk to lol, its nice giving traffic only to people from greenguy and jim.
