So there are 4 more opponents besides yourself. It's pretty close that you can raise this for value b/c of your flushdraw however since there are so many callers this might indicate that some of your outs are in the hands of the coldcallers. Could be at least.
I can see you did raise this but I'm not sure wether it's the right decission, based upon BB's aggressiveness/tightness.

call, looks like you need that flush to win. flop call -> turn raise is either a stone cold bluff(not likely) or he has you beat big time

take your ego out of the equation and judge the situation dispassionately

Even when behind to a set or a straight, I have 8 clean outs, so a raise is costing me at most (0.25-8/46)*$60 = $4.56 if BB caps it. If I am behind J9 and the 2s is good, it only costs me $3.26. If outs to the Q and A are good as well, raising nets me $3.26. However, I think I am behind QT, a set, or J9 much more than 50% of the time, so raising is clearly not the best play.
If MP1 calls along, I have a little more incentive to raise, but it will still rarely be profitable to do so.
I thought at the time I made this play (three betting the turn) that it was a good one. These are the kind of spots (good looking but very vulnerable hand against a passive opponent that raises) that I am trying to reign in my aggression a little.

i don't like the raise here. judging from the flop and turn action, you probably have half the spade outs you should have...

I'm not sure you can reasonably make this assumption given the opponents. It's a bad habit, anyway.
