Hi
We just suffered another Spam attack.
When it is so obviously SPAM can we moneysavers resist the urge to post a comment on their post if someone has already pointed out that it is SPAM. All this does is lift it back to the top of page 1
I understand that at times posts are reported as SPAM when they are not. These are not the posts I mean but the more obvious ones that are posted consecutively by a new poster
Thanx to all and have a great moneysaving day

I would just add that it IS important that someone posts to confirm they have reported it - otherwise we can all go around thinking someone else has done it.0

Having SPAM attacks highlighted many times so its on page 1 can be a good thing. Especially for us who are still wet behind the ears at this game![STRIKE]30:22[/STRIKE]

Please don't bump OTHER threads though like here:

As that puts all those threads into "new posts" for no reason at all. Like my I'm sure many people use the new posts feature to read the forums.0 -
