I just noticed the last message in the following thread appears to be spam.

Is there a way to report it other than sending a PM to Adam or a moderator?

Click the little flag at the extreme left bottom of the post, then put a few words in the box. It will show for any moderator to do something about it. Today I flagged as "possible spam" the second post I saw with no photo comments and links to some gold fraud site. It seems to be the same fellow you link to.

Thanks CR. Yep, probably the same.

I flagged it.

So did I. I didn't realize that's what the little flag was for. On another board I moderate, we actually have a little "Report to Moderator" link at the bottom of every post.

Hi CW,

You might want to check out the site usage guide, found in my signature, for more details on some of the site's less obvious features!

I sent Bill (wlank) a PM on that guy's spam as well.
I thought that I had seen a report post sign somewhere earlier, but didn't notice it this time

Too bad that there's people like that fellow ruining it for others.

I've updated the automated anti-spam system's keywords, so those posts shouldn't be showing up anymore, luckily. If I didn't have that system in place, at least twice the amount of spam would be leaking out onto the forum

I wonder if they get anything out of it other than a bad name
Personally I won't give any company advertising through them a nickle, and avoid buying anything with their name on like the plague.

I just figured out that having a "referral" in your profile is a good thing and not a bad one. I thought it was like a demerit or something.
