The number of people you follow won't affect whether your replies are seen as spam. Your follow list is only used to help decide if other people might be spammers.
For example, because I follow you, the people you follow are generally considered not spam. However, if you follow a huge number of people (the Dunbar threshold), then your follow list is no longer consider useful for this purpose.

Interesting. Maybe the name Dunbar can be replaced by a term which doesn't require insider knowledge?
And can also set the depth of the web of Trust? Like 1, 2, 3 levels?
Hmm maybe the Dunbar setting can be name related to the width (per follow) to be taken of the follow graph , and the depth is as explained above?
Probably you won't read my message because I'm not on your follow list. You could add a feature that you also accept people who has zapped you above a certain threshold, this would mean they have something so important to say that they are willing to pay you to listen:)
