If Spammer is added as foe, posts don't get marked as read . . .

and they stay red and have to be displayed in order to be cleared.

Please fix this and please automatically remove spammers.

Also, please add "Spammer" as the first choice when users report abuse. None of the other categories fit and when we select other, we have to type in a comment.

Hi,

If you notice a spammer, please report it and we'll delete it as soon as possible.

There's no way to automatically delete spam posts - they can be pretty sneaky.

Thanks for the suggestions!

I hope you kill the spammer's account, as well.

[cherryaudio Greg]

Yup, and better than deleting the account, I deactivate it and ban it.

But it's a never-ending battle, because they generate random email addresses and often only make one post per account. Instead, they make dozens of accounts with different email addresses.

Thanks!!!

Is there some spam I missed?

[UrbanCyborg]

It all seemed to be under the same account name. If so, you probably got it all. Some of it was attached to really old threads.

[cherryaudio Greg]

Yeah, if the spammer makes more than one post, we can delete them all at once.
