    On a daily basis i will come across some spam or something that should not be on the forums, etc.

    Just random bits and pieces that people place within posts.

    In order to build a better community and weed out the Spammers, Scammers and The Fraudulent i believe that we should take a closer read through the rules and use the report button more often instead of just ignoring it.,

    All views are welcomed :)

    That is the thing thought.

    The use of the report button and this idea is just so simple that i cannot see why it is not used by more people when SPAM is on the forums.

    It is my belief that we should all do this in order to help the forum staff clean the forum up instead of them having to HUNT DOWN such POSTS.

    Its just like there was a spam post made within this thread and look now the member is banned, but no doubt there were other reasons the ban was made also.

    In order to keep a clean forum, a good community of members should work together.
