Just wondering if the mods or site has a filter, or at lease keep it only to the non-specific forums.
Just a thought and not trying to be critical. ;)

There is a moderator but is rarely ever on and the site admin is MIA for about a year and a half. I agree it would be nice

If anyone is interested in helping us moderate the forums by deleting spam posts as they come in, please let me know and we can discuss giving you moderator privileges. It only takes a few minutes each day to delete the spam, as I can't catch all of it.

Is there a way to add a "report this user" button next to each post?

Not at present. I've been deleting the accounts of users who spam the forums.

I would be interested into destroying those idiots interfering. I usually visit this site often and i love to just chat about indoor plants in general.

VenusFlyTrap, you should have admin privileges now that will enable you to delete individual posts or entire threads. Let me know if that is not the case. Thanks.

Could I be able to delete spam posts as well? I visit this site every day so I think I would be able to get a good amount of spam off of the site.
