    Default stopping the Spammers in their tracks

    Hello John

    Don't know what to recommend but you need to put some filter in place to keep the "Knights who now say Spam" outta here. End the automatic account setup and go to the need to approve all new members by the Administrator?

    cheers

    Perhaps a spam button we users could hit, similar to the one in my email account?

    Well there is the 'report post' button on top right, but I understand that it is after-the-fact. We'll see what we can do.

    Perhaps I'm just plain dumb, but I can't seem to find the report post button.
