    When I see a clear Spam I flag it but, when  it's a repeat offender bombarding with several threads at once I send a report to the mods.  That gets a very quick response.

    On Fridays it's important to Report  so the mods can deal with them before they log off for the weekend.

    It works for me, I ignored Hosta, will put him back of course but this is what I now see.

    Dear peeps, in the first post on this thread I wrote "Please click the flag on screen bottom right to report. After five flags, the post is removed. Thank you". It looks like someone misunderstood and flagged the icon on the bottom of my own message (rather than the spam post). Each spam report counts as one 'point' on the account so now I have five points against me. Would the person who flagged this thread as spam mind undoing their flag (just click the flag again on the first of my posts on this thread)? Thank you.

    It was @Freddies Dad. If you click on flag then hover over it, it shows who has clicked it.
    I'm sure it wasn't intentional.

    As the one being reported, I don't get to see who reported me if I cover over the icon. (I guess for obvious reasons).

    @Freddies Dad would you mind unreporting me? Unless it was for real, in which case, let's talk about in on PM. Thanks

    Where is all this spam? I'm happy to say I'm not seeing any (that I know of!). Are you guys flagging them before I get to see them? Has there been any today?

    What constitutes a "clear Spam"?

    I haven't seen any this morning DGM,  but early yesterday evening there were loads from one poster written in Korean. That's what sparked this thread.
