This comment is confusing to me. The agent defaults to "since last visit." This means that by default the agent only shows you content that has been posted since the last time you used the agent. Therefore there is no waiting for content to scroll off the agent. It scrolls off the second you stop using it.

The only way to break this that I am aware of is to visit the agent more then once every two hours.

Of course, content may reappear in your agent if it is rerecommended by someone else.

This will not be a problem. Such a person is unlikely to build up enough reputation capital to appear in your agent.
