Reporting posts for bad things

Most forums have a convenient little button-y thing on each post that allows people who find a spam post or any kind of icky post to report it directly to the mods. Can't find one here. Could just be me, but I looked really hard, honest!

So here's my report: There's a member named ambrunner running around spamming for drugs. I don't think he's interested in Heroes...

Yeah, spammers are really coming out of the woodworks now. I've had to delete a spam thread and ban the spammer about once a week now.

Anyways, I'll look into adding something like you mention. In the meantime, just PM myself or tobnameless if you run across such spam and we'll deal with it post haste. Thanks for wanting to keep the board clean, it's appreciated!

I locked that thread and pmed that person, but I didn't ban them as I thought I would either give them a chance before I flushed them down the cyber toilet. Thanks Cabri for doin your part.

Nah, don't bother warning them. Whenever they start their very first post by spamming, they're professional spammers, and are not here for anything other than to spam links. They do this stuff for a living.

Ok boss! I'm on the job! No prisoners, no retreat
