Spam Deletion And Moderator Notification

this crap is everywhere. Is there any way to add a "inform moderator" thing to click on or something so we can let moderators or site administrators know about posts that shouldn't be in forums (not just spam but also mean messages and such)?

Good idea...

Are spams really "everywhere", or is this just the first one in the psoriasis forunm? Just wondering where else you see them?

I've noticed them everywhere glancing at other forums. I remember one time, looking in the schizophrenia forum, finding a ton of spam messages about getting "spy software" or something like that, which is sick because they're obviously trying to play on the paranoid side of the illness. If you look around you'll see them. Also, that user that made that post up there sent a number of pms with the same message.

I know, that's why users need to be able to inform moderators of bad posts so they can be deleted by whoever is watching.
