'Nother edit: And I was about to report this one, too, but I see that catherwood posted about it two days ago.

I report 'em when I find 'em, which is usually in the morning, and happy to see more people use this thread.

(Gamification experts take note: I take pleasure in the challenge of being the first to report spam, but I don't need a leaderboard or awards points to know I'm having fun. Also, the social aspects are more in seeing what witty ways people can snark about the spammers, not in gaining status with my peers.)*

A lovely post of Shakespeare quotes, ruined by a spam link

As an aside to catherwood's soliloquy, I appreciate the unexpected. Like the fact that an obscure administrative area devoted to a mundane task is also one of the places on the site that I look forward to visiting for non-competitive, witty repartee. There's just way too much noise in my signal, these days and quality is winning out over quantity. There are great, massive areas of the site that I rarely visit, anymore.

a spam thread wasn't locked... and a spammer just replied to it, with spam. Go figure.

also, this spammer needs lessons on how to properly format links

this post misspells iTouch as "Itouch" and puts it in the same sentence as "skin", so forgive me for not clicking on the link to confirm it as spam.

Are congratulations in order?
