    I've been hit by five spam messages in a span of about 21 hours, three of which were in the past two hours.

    How do we report spammers ? maybe we could have a spam button to mark the PM as spam ?

    Forwarding it to a moderator = reporting them.

    But don't make them misunderstood that you are spamming them. (Will this happen?)

    Well I don't think we need to. The sender is usually banned in a matter of hours.

    I myself hope that there is a Spam where I can just press it and it capture all the spammers and banned them till eternity. Pity there isn't such a feature yet. Till the time this feature is available, I guess the next best alternative will be deluxdon's advice.

    we don't need to worry much about spam pm's because the moderators here are always active and they ban immediately when they find them!
    Even though,you can forward the spam pm to one of our mod so that they will take care of him!
