Good idea. And now you have the address to submit it. :)
There is one downside to posting it there: the same bots triggering the
need for it can also pick it up. If that email account gets overwhelmed
with spam we have another problem on our hands.
In the meantime, most folks just use the "Report Post" icon in the
upper-right of a post; flagging one is usually sufficient to get a
moderator's attention if we haven't seen it already.
Relatively speaking (given the number of bots slamming forums around the
world all day) the amount of *visible* spam on the LC forums is
relatively low, certainly lower than the amount of spam that happens.
Klaus hits most nearly as fast as they come in (Klaus, do you sleep?),
and I or others tend to kill them as soon as we see them; I tend to
check the forums a few times most days. Most of the time we kill 'em
before they get reported, sometimes probably before others even see them.
