I was talking about the Spamcop BL. What I meant was "the value added to
the Spamcop BL by each user decreases as the number of users increases".

Having said that, I think the same is true to some extent with ISPs. Even
if the ISP has a threshold of reports before they take action, it doesn't
make any difference if they get 200 reports about a particular issue
rather than 100 reports.
