A Plea To All The Spam Reporters
Ok, I've already mentioned somewhere, that you don't have to report EACH AND EVERY post that a spammer makes...one is enough, and then we SPAMINATE them and that catches ALL OF THE POSTS without filling our inboxes up with 15 people reporting 15 posts each

Here is another request. IF SOMEONE HAS ALREADY reported a spammer......please post it here, spammer's name, and maybe a link to ONE spam post, so that others can see that it's ALREADY BEEN reported.

That will help us out ALOT and free up our inbox from clicking on each reported post from different people

My inbox thanks you already

I'll sticky this for now, and maybe move it around to different forums to be sure that ALL YOU SHARP EYES see it

I think you need to get a Spamerator instead of pleading for people to use their noggins. Unless of course you like to beat your head against the wall.

Definition of a Spamerator.........
One that is somewhat like a Moderator but with much less power. His / her sole purpose is to hunt down and destroy spammers.

Just an additional note that there's really no point in replying to spam threads as all replies get nuked in the process as well.
