Due to another spammer having appeared on the Forum, and my having to message
the Admins about it, I now think that Bricklink should have a designated “Report”
button on each Forum post (as is the case on Eurobricks). This would make reporting
spam/problem members/etc much easier, since the Admins could be contacted immediately
upon seeing the offending post and automatically be directed to the specific
post in question.
Is this something that Bricklink can implement?

It works, but such a button would be a very useful alternative.

This is a bit more complicated than what I had in mind (and I am not even sure
where to access it!).
Perhaps the button on each post could be a link to this page, and a category
of “Other” could be added.

While I know that it is generally poor form to bump old threads, the "Bricklink
Regulation Vote Yes or No" topic brings this issue to the fore once again.
Would it be possible for Bricklink to implement a 'Report' button, or
at least make it easier to report problem members and off-the-rails threads?
Perhaps a link at the bottom of each thread? (I actually think that I reported
the member in question via the incorrect form).
