How many Legit members I don't know but probably not many. I can tell you that out of almost 36000 members there's only 11894 that have ever posted and that the top 30 posters here on the forum are responsible for better than about 52000 post of what the forum statistics say, and guess what you the top dog with I think over 5000 post of you own. :thumbsup:

Yeah--think about it, just the top 5 members on the forum have over 20,000 posts....that's a big portion of the total....so you know there aren't too many contributors to the forum. :frown:

Some day I'm going to write a how-to book. "Banning by the first octet of the IP for fun & profit."

There's collateral damage, but its sure effective.

We need a reported post section so members can copy a link from the spam, and paste the post in a (report post section) to notify us exactly where the spam post is, or just leave the title of the section where they saw it.. I blasted 3 off the other day I cant stand spammers.

People can report a post using the icon right below the post (triangle with !).

You can report the post now, that's not the problem or the issue. The problem is we can't get rid of the spammer so he just keeps coming back. Have you read this whole thread?
