Default how do you report a user?

ForumsAdministrator is the newest spammer. How do I report all these spammers?

Just banned him for life.

These Spambots are getting worse all the time. Each day one of the Mods will try to sweep for them, when we're available that is.

Look at the top right-hand corner of the post (ANY post ever made on this forum). See that red triangle with an exclamation point in it? Click it.

They are going to inboxes, not posting.

When that happens, just send me a message or e-mail. As a Mod, my interface looks a bit different from yours, so I dunno if I have any function that lets me report users sending spam to my Inbox. I do have the ability to ban anyone whose profile I view, though.

Also, remember that if you've received one of those spam PMs, chances are that at least one of the mods received it, too. In which case, it's a moot point. But, better safe than sorry.

Each time it shows who else it was sent to, and they seem to avoid moderators.
