Dealing with spam on this site

Options
Can I suggest that in future it would be best if spam posts are reported, but not replied to? Replying simply bumps them back up the list, and they get more of the attention they're looking for.

    Perhaps just one simple reply that says "Reported" and then no further replies would make sense.
