Default Reporting Spam
I attempted to report a thread started by a spammer today and was told I do not have sufficient permissions to access that function. I know I've been able to flag spam in the past, so either something is buggy here or there's been a change in policy concerning who is allowed to report spam.

Can one report spam? I'm interested in knowing because all the garbage flying around is surely spoiling the experience.
Also, what happened to my signature?

Sorry, PipCrawler. Was out of town when you posted. I don't remember where that spam was now, but I'll keep you in mind if I run into that problem again. Thanks!

Talk about spam.

Too bad your affiliate business is so crappy that you can't promote it properly.

BTW, is "casinobonusfrees" a foreign word meaning "moron"? Just wondering.

Same problem, it says I don't have permission to report spam. There is a new spam in Newbie Island that looks like it could be dangerous.

This philopaul guy is posting his nigerian spam all over the board now .. link is a zip file, could be self-extracting .. hope the mods get to it before someone clicks & possibly damages their computer.

Where are the mods? when I try to report a spam message, it says I do not have "permission". Now there is a sexually explicit message in the Newbie Island, forex peace army thread and a spam posting in the Free Forex Trading Systems = GBP/JPY thread .
It looks like the mods need to give more permissions to trusted people to help police this forum, it is beginning to get invaded by spammers.
