Prevent spam by only allowing message feature to connections
I recently got spammed by verababy and realized that it'd be nice to have an option to only be able to accept messages (since they're sent via email) from people that I've explicitly accepted. As it is now, there's not much stopping somebody from creating a junk account and then sending direct message spam to everybody.

Inappropriate?I was spammed by the same person. I'll take the approach you suggested, but it seems like we ought to be able to report a user in the event they're a spammer....
I’m perturbed.

Chris, we're working on a report feature, but unfortunately we don't have an ETA. In the meantime you can ping us on Brightkite or Twitter (username Brightkite) or at supportATbrightkiteDOTcom. -
Inappropriate?Hi Jonathan, we're very sorry about this. We will see about possibly putting in an option to only receive Direct Messages from people who are your friends.
