it would be nice to have a button on each post to click as an easier way to identify and clean up spam such as http://www.laserpointerforums.com/forums/YaBB.pl?num=1201405337/0#0

But what exactly would the button do? Would it mark the post as spam, or would it send a pm to c0ld about it? Because with something like that, some little ass fool could just register and mark everything as spam just to get a laugh.

You could do something like the Blam/Save points on Newgrounds... if that's even possible lol.

on most other forums it just dispatches an automated PM to a moderator, easy way to flag posts for removal, and since it requires moderator action a nub that thinks it would be funny to click everything wouldn't get anywhere
