    Hey guys this place was getting hit big time last night. Report any spam right away and save our HAMB!!! Shut this down after the message gets out.

    You can. Just wait a minute or 2 after reporting it, then report it again, and it will disappear! Works every time I've done that :cool:

    Nuking spam is kind of satisfying.

    The HAMB gets hit with SPAM thousands of times a day.
    You only see a very small fraction that gets through.

    Yes, hit the Spam two times, and it disappears from the main page. Have to wait 30 seconds I think.

    Wish I had single click privileges ha ha

    I nuke them as fast as I can, I only wish that there wasn’t the delay that says you must wait for xx seconds to hit it for the second time. :D

    Need an app that nukes them before they even get approved on the HAMB!
    You can tell by their registration name, it usually makes no sense.

    Ryan is aware of it, but recovering from Hawaii beach ass drinking toothpick umbrella topped / flower decorated potent concoctions......

    We appreciate you guys reporting the SPAM.
    SPAM companies are so automated sending out millions per day.
    It's just F'N crazy.
    It's a websites largest challenge by far.

    Not exactly that straightforward...:D

    More like clic Report, Type in Spam, Send and Repeat 15 or so seconds later...:confused:...that's how easy it is...;)

    I've hit a couple in the last few days, usually around 6AM EDT. What I don't understand is what do they get out of it - a couple of cents for every link that gets clicked? There has to be money in it somewhere.

  21. I'm not computer savy, how do you report and how do you double click?

    I just tried my mouse and it's only ONE clic with the Left Mouse button...

    Open the post...do not reply Ever...See the red !Report! at the bottom of the post Select it (One Clic with Left Mouse Button or finger select with Cellphone or touch screen)

    A Report Post text box appears...One left Clic into Report Reason...type in Spam and Left Mouse One clic or One Finger if Cellphone or touchscreen Report Post

    Done...Wait I think its 20 seconds then Do the Same Report Post thing again...same as above and the Spam pot will be gone...

    If you get an Error message Someone has taken care of it already...

    Sometimes I report One do some other stuff for a minute and go back and do it again rather than sit and wait.

    Hope this Helps...and yeah many of the Members AND the Mods partake in this pastime...;)

    One more thing is some of these Bastards post 100 links to Who Knows What...BE Careful when scrolling down to find the !Report! Button that you don't select any links by accident...;)

    Not going there Stogy ….

    I'm going to close this one as it is drifting off topic.....

    What cracks me up about SPAM the food in a can is the content is
    HAM and Pork ?

    SAME Stuff !

    Like it makes a difference to the Pig that contributed ?

    Always cracked me up ordering Pizza - Canadian Bacon and Sausage … same stuff.

    Ok closed.....

    Thanks for helping on the internet "Spam" fellas .
