I see that the spammers have now invaded this site also. Lumberjocks has had this problem for about a week now. It's time to change the new user rules.

I started to say the same thing earlier, even opened the edit window, but changed my mind.
Since you brought it up, I thank corporal punishment should be allowed for abusive spammers.

The best thing you can do is report the post by pressing the

button on the bottom left hand corner of their post. That will notify all the moderators.

Thanks for the tip. I didn't know that was an available option. Now if only all forums woudl have that feature, the world would be a better place.
