I agree - but with one change...
Post a reply to spam only if you've actually reported it as spam. Everyone else sees the second post and prompty ignores the thread. This should ensure that only one reply is actually made to idiotic pyramid scheme threads and the like!!Never attach your ego to your position....0 -
