Yea, We're getting a lot of spam lately. I've personally removed around...well, a lot lol.

It'd be easier for us to delete and ban the spammer if you could report the post and the user, that way, every moderator would get an email with the reported post.

Hello Jose

Cant to ban ip addreses? or stop new sign ups for a while and delete the people who are spamming. Or atleast check in once in a while and check.

What is the problem with you getting rid of this spam?
