I noticed some spam wound up in a post earlier then hours later, in another. Maybe it'd be a good idea if there was a single spot to catalog spam posts.

I think something like this is a good idea.
Would it be possible for us to report spam posts to moderators? I'm sure theres plenty people willing to help out but don't know how to handle spam posts properly 😉

Have these guys managed to beat the captcha somehow? Or are they solving it manually?

Hehe, thanks 😉

Actually, when gaming online I'm always the person to keep an eye out for cheaters and hackers, and I got a pretty good hacker-spotter eye, having been a server admin for a couple of years hehe 😉
