Your example is not spamming, many people may want a photo of a businessman wearing a suit and necktie and as such these images are correctly keyworded. Using the word 'NOT' also works on many search engines for example 'businessman NOT necktie'.

Just an opinion ...mine... I think we pay dearly to have DT review uploads. Does that include reviewing key words? It should. Let them do their job and let buyers notify support of spam. If contributors are "obviously" spamming ... DT has the tools to eliminate the problem. All I could do is "tell on them."All this thread has done is confuse me. I'm not sure I know what spam is. and, I am not quailifed ... or paid ... to monitor everyone's keywords.
