Is there a way to report spam?
Pownce is getting a bit more popular. It makes me happy, but unfortunately...the more popular Pownce gets, the more likely spammers are to invade.
I haven't seen any system in place thus far for reporting spammers. The most popular ones tend to be the ones with "hot girl" avatars, who post nothing but spam links. Today, however, I got a piece of spam from someone who didn't even try to add me. My assumption is that someone has built a bot to scan the public timeline and post replies to every single post that appears.
The user in question:
http://pownce.com/silvacido/
I was just wondering if there were any plans in place to add in spam protection? It's not insanely necessary; it's just a bit of a bother when I get these friend requests from obvious spammers, and it's even worse when one of them just plain spams my comments.
Thanks! :)

Inappropriate?Currently you can flag spam on http://pownce.com/public/ , but I agree that there should be additional ways to flag spam now. In the meantime, everyone is welcome to report spammers to help@pownce.com. We will investigate and suspend accounts when appropriate.
