Report them so we can ban them.

I always feel silly reporting spam since I figure the mods see it, too. I don't want to create a "Yes, yes. I KNOW!!" kind of feeling, so I tend not to report it. But I'll give it a shot...

I report spam a bunch of times. I hope the mods don't say "Oh no, there she goes again." This is getting ridiculous!
Another board I frequent reviews first posts before they are posted. No spam there at all.

Folks, we are down to one supermod, who is very busy in his non-GC life, and the regular moderators can only get rid of spam in the forum they moderate. Many of our regular moderators are on GC infrequently, if at all. Sorry.

As a mod, every time I log on I report spam so the forum mod(s) or supermod can kill it. The more reporting the merrier I think? Seems it's gotten really bad the past few weeks though.

I was going to suggest that. Maybe time for some new or additional mods.

I noticed that the Spam was showing up more frequently and wasn't getting deleted. I wonder what happened to GC. It was so much fun when I first joined. We didn't have any Spam back then. At least I don't remember there ever being any Spam back then.

PT is not on often and is probably tired of coming back solely to clean up spam. She has many irons in the fire.

If this is true - if she is "tired of coming back" - then perhaps she should resign. I was under the impression that she had already done that anyway, but it seems she still engages in supermod activities from time to time.
If a supermod resigns, shouldn't he/she be replaced? Between PT and NinjaPoodle (whom, regrettably, is rumored to have resigned), it would appear that we're two supermods light. Reading over this thread in its entirety indicates we've had a need for an additional (east coast) mod for years now. What can we do? Nominate someone?

I did resign.
Until John changes my status back to regular member, I've popped in and out to clean spam. If you're on GC enough, why don't you volunteer for supermod? Just a thought.
