Also linking this to the lounge!

Sorry, it's not that I can't be bothered - it's that I have not seen this post.. I do not spend my life on here and only read hot topics.

Maybe you should reword your above statement and say something along the lines of "There were some unadvised members regarding this.. I have let them know the rules surrounding this"?

Time to give this a wee bump - don't comment on spam, use the exclamation mark to report it. Commenting on it makes it harder for the mods to deal with. Don't ask me how, I'm not a mod :D :thumbsup:
Current... Silver Grey ///M Roadster, non-flimper spec, Imola Red nappa, permanent ear-to-ear grin 8)

Previous... 3.0Si Sport Roadster, Black Sapphire, Dream Red leather with lots of toys and lots of mods...

No it's not,

It's a post about Spam posts - there is a world of difference.

If it was a real Spam post, it'll be locked - wouldn't it Mods?

I often find I am in a hurry when deleting spam, clcik on the user, ban them and delete the account. If someone has posted a comment or a funny picture in the thread there is a chance I may accidentally delete their account. So, please keep this in mind and simply report spam rather than commenting on it. :thumbsup:

dear Mods,

Rather than someone randomly bumping this so it is top of the list can't it be pinned so shows as important?

Or maybe the thread could be changed to an Announcement, which will show it on top everywhere?

Just a thought :poke:
