I just received a private message from anhtuan103 that was clearly a spam message. I looked around the page but saw no means of reporting such abuse. The best I could do was place the user on my ignore list. Is there any means of reporting such users to help prevent spam of this nature?

Sort of. Just forward the message to LaRoza or Joeb454 or any other mod/admin and they will take care of it.

I really should read the other theads in this forum before posting, looks like there was a rash of this stuff recently.

True, hopefully that person (they registered multiple accounts) has been stopped now
