Excessive spam suggestion

Tom - is there a button you could activate to "Report Bad Post"s?

Once a reader of the forums spots spam, they could hit the report button and you or another moderator could delete the thread, ban the account and spare other readers seeing it repeatedly bumped to the top as others reply with spam alerts (I'm guilty of this minor etiquette infraction myself).

On behalf of myself and others who do not come here to learn how to conceal their internet tracks, buy viagra or refinance their homes -
and all others sick of Image

Thanks

Seconded, that would be a very useful feature. Although such occurances are pretty rare on this forum, once they start they tend to get more and more common :?

I'll check into it.

For the record, I usually log in and check the posts and the member list once a day. Most of the spammers get bounced before they get a chance to post, but this seems to have been a bad day :evil:

In any case, I do appreciate the "heads up" messages.

Anyone else think of this when they saw the thread title?
