We appreciate members that do report spam - and encourage all of you to help us keep this forum as clear of spam as possible. 
P.S. The latest round of Japanese language spam has centered in the General Discussion Forum - keep your eyes open there please. |
I noticed some yesterday in the deals/free forum and reported on it. It was about 14-15 posts when I noticed it and a few minutes later it was gone! So it went from crowding out the legit posts to zip very quickly. I don't know if it was me reporting it or our mods being vigilant but either way it was taken care of quickly.
