Remove 30s wait for spam reporting

[sdifox]

Don't know if it is possible but could you consider removing the timelock from spam reporting? Since spammers don't tend to just post once and having to wait half a minute to report doesn't exactly motivate me to do it.

Yes , It sucks reporting a spammer only to see an "Error Block" pop up to be told I need to wait 3 seconds ( longer ) to report !

Is it necessary to report every thread? I usually just do 1, assuming the Mods/Admin take care of the rest.

I report any that have 0 (zero) posts , only 1 or 2 views , and have been up less that an hour. It's usually 0 dark 30 when I see them.

Well, it usually involves multiple accounts as well.

I miss the ability to click under a user's name, and have the option for "find all posts by user".

It made it easy to check whether someone was posting the same link to several threads.

Maybe we need a 10 - 20 minute minimum between posts for the newbee spammers ... some do 10 - 20 spams in 10 minutes

You can still see that in user profile.

Since banning user accounts takes time, what about a filter that removes any posts with ".com" in the title?

This is getting bad MODS.

YEA ! What that guy said ! Just one spammer had 76 posts and counting !

We need more spam killing Mods - ASAP
This is getting ridiculous

Maybe all new users need to go into new user forum for a while...

Seems odd there would even be a delay at all for using that feature. Maybe just make it require like 100 posts. I presume the purpose of the delay is because spammers themselves may actually use it to spam?

I usually just report a few as I presume it gets the mod's attention then they'll notice the rest.

New users should not be allowed to post hyperlinks and anything with URLs. Just make new users a unique group with different privileges than normal users until the get to a specific post count. I'd say that 100 posts would keep most out.
