Re: Spam and advertising on the Forums
Yes, Coco. I've reported at least a dozen ( seems to be 2 or 3 of them) 
.
PS: Darn! Just saw four more by "members" I reported earlier .

Re: Spam and advertising on the Forums
Edit: I have deleted this earlier comment, as, I think I may have got my wires-crossed - sorry, Wine-O! 
Merlin, I reported a post earlier today (N.Z. morning!) which I hope you got to read regarding my apology & my mention of the "Forum occupation" query? Cheers!

Re: Spam and advertising on the Forums
Yes, I forgot to add that too - thanks, Maree!
(I've just reported the post of a spammer after your post, M, if you or anyone is wondering? Am I supposed to still write "report" here on the Forum after clicking the report button to inform, Merlin & Eric 
Thanks!)

Re: Spam and advertising on the Forums
I reported the one above your last post, Kris (also).
Until yesterday evening (my time), I was posting "Reported" for posts I'd reported but the consensus seemed to be not to do so. Some were confused if the mods deleted the offending (spam) post while I was asleep/before I had a chance to delete my "Reported" and it appeared under an innocuous post.
So I've not added "Reported" since.
Does that make sense?
PS: I just noticed, when I checked in now, that there's a whole heap of "what looks like spam" posts. I've reported one but I'm still at work and don't have the time to report the others. Sorry.

Re: Spam and advertising on the Forums
Has anyone eaten spam recently, I mean this is a food site. I know there is a Spam cook book. It is probably 20 years since I had some. Spam fritters anyone?
