So, I was wondering, is there any way to set up the display of threads to also include the "Report Post" warning triangle do-dad somewhere near the thread title or something so blatant obvious spam can be reported from outside the threads instead of clicking in and wasting time?

Although as evidenced by the numerous single item FS threads from a handful of usual suspects, it's obvious that rule isn't being enforced anyway...

you could make it harder for them to make new threads but all that will do is bury the spam further into existing threads that we won't easily see.
James is working on a VBB upgrade that should help a lot, this version is quite old now and they probably know all the security exploits. The spam is super annoying I agree but we're doing our best to remove it.

I just saw the best thing ever for spam on. Another forum. To sign up you have to put in a secret answer but instead of being some odd question you have to watch a commercial and type the phrase that comes up at the end in the video. Pretty solid idea if you ask me.

This site maintains a list of known spammers and provides an API to check their database.
I don't know how effective it is as they seem to come up with a new name every time.
