Hey Toms staff,
I have a feature request that could save everyone a bit of time and trouble.
Would it be possible to include a 'Spam' button in addition to Thumbs Up/Down, Report and Quote for the Comments?
The way I could see it working best would be similar to a voting system.
Once a comment has been marked as spam, for example, 5 times it would be automatically deleted.
This would both free up the mods so that they can focus more on the forums and give users the feeling that they can actually do something against the onslaught.
To help protect against abuse, perhaps the TOS could be adjusted to include something to the effect of 'misuse of the Spam button will result in a 1 month ban for the first and second offence and permaban for the third' or something similar.
Just my 0,02€ on how to improve the site...
