There actually is a report button next to every post. Does anyone receive a message when it is used?

Good question!

That exactly the reason we don't use the report post.
Posting to this thread will send an alert so that we can respond as soon as possible.
Otherwise, we need to poll daily for reported posts.

i really think you guys should prevent new users from putting a URL in their signatures. limit it to it being available after a certain # of posts or something. all the spammers are doing this and making nonsense posts here. most boards i know prevent new users from posting any URLs anywhere until they've been around long.

good idea, mombasstic!

User hurry234 used a trick which was new to me: C&P of an older post (actually one of mine) in this thread:

i really hope they do something about the spammers... they have sorta taken over these forums... it's a shame really.
i say just remove the silly ability to put URLs in sigs and it will cut down the spamming by at least half... hope the admin is listening.

Embedded content (URLs, images, Flash, etc) is now disabled in signatures.

Admin is *always* listening. ;)
