That thread should pretty much say it all. Newly registered user pretty clearly associated with the company selling covers, whose only posts have been 'advertising' under the guise of just being a fellow reader.

Stinger, to the left of each post, and to the right of the KARMA button is a little exclamation mark button. That will allow you to report a post to the Moderators for any particular reason (including spam). My experience is that the mods are usually pretty quick to respond.

Cheers,
Marc

No worries. No face-palms though - it's not an obvious thing, and I don't think it hurts it for it to be periodically highlighted. I know the Mods appreciate attention such as yours giving them a heads-up via that button on potentially problematic posts/posters.

Cheers,
Marc

Thanks, Marc. I also missed that button. The aforementioned spam did prompt me to the perversity of searching for B&N Nook accessories on Amazon. The selection is not bad, and I can actively avoid the spammer's products.

Ah, so it seems every spam has a silver lining. Well okay, maybe not every spam. Maybe just this one.

So how light is your wallet now (whoops, there goes the silver lining )?
