Hands up who wants to kick hainom a new one!

85 spam post across all forums, is they the worst spammer ever?

Could we get a button to stop spammers, like the cool and current button but instead if enough people press it it freezes the spammers ability to post.

That's an interesting idea. How many would "enough" be?

Have you tried the "U-Mod" button? It's at the bottom of every thread and it alerts the moderators to this kind of thing. They'll handle it much faster if there is more than one U-Mod vote.

I think ATT is talking about having the ability to have the u-mod feature automatically suspend an account user's ability to post, once enough u-mods have been registered.

I always U-mod spam but in this case the spammers prolific spamming warranted my rile. Often spammers, spam when the moderators are asleep but because of our timezone I'm spotting the spam first, it would just be nice to freeze them before they fill the forum with offers of phones/drugs/porn or whatever.

I would hope members would use the spam-stop button for good and not to block annoying posters from trolling.
