I was noticing here a lot of spam:

And I don't see offhand how to report spam, is there a button/feature someplace for that ?

Over 10 pages? Wow. Even some in asian fonts.
We're getting a better CAPTCHA installed on the signup form now, I don't know about the possibility of a report button in drupal, but at least we can stop more getting in while that's tidied up.
Now for hours of tedious deleting...

Whilst CAPTCHA's can reduce spam, they also put off real people as well. (I've had emails from people complaining about this in particular, so I can only assume that being the tip of the iceberg, as I myself often find it most annoying to repeatedly having to try and get them right when accessing such services.)
As such, I reckon throwing more human staff members at the issue would be a preferred option than throwing more technical solutions at it.
Its a pity forum software doesn't make deleting spam an easy thing
Talking of which, I should go and do some house keeping in my own..
(I moderate some 61 forums, some of whose software is awful and takes forever.)
Incidently, I notice:

Also filling up with spam. (What I do here is look at online users, then look at their forum posts to see if they are posting spam or not.)
