Normally when spammers come, they'll make a few dupe threads, and you can only report once every so many minutes. That's quite annoying. I remember Vyse making a thread saying Report threads, don't respond, maybe that's worth stickying (if I'm not making this up :3)

All right, sorry if you took that meaning. That was not meant but it does solve the time-zone thingy.
I started this thread to rid the forum of useless spammers who spam and I did NOT do this to become a mod which I won't...

To cw, (if possible) bringing back the genuine member system that existed before the forum update and being able to ban IPs would help clear up *a lot* of the spam, imo (or stop if from being visible to regular members at least).
