  |  How to Report a Spammer Right it seems people are not quite sure how to do this. So here is a tutorial. This is the quickest and most effective way of reporting a spammer or any other selling/offensive post. 1) Look below there username for this icon:  2) Click on it for the post in question. This takes you to the report page (see attachment). 3) Fill out the details as you would a normal post and click send report. This goes to all the moderators and one of them will deal with the post. 4) Try this on this post without clicking send. 5) Go and report the spammers.

| No worries Joe. It would be better if it was moved and sticky in the announcements forum for all too see rather than 'hidden' in off topic.
