Interesting. This typically means their ratio of posts to users or activity to monthly users is out of whack. I'll have to check more deeply.

They do have some popular communities (!techtakes@awful.systems, for example) despite having a smallish number of users, and the admin (David Gerard) posts his writing there

It is legit though.

Oh I know. The suspicion list is just that suspicion for ratios which might be indicate botting. I probably need to tweak those numbers
