Nagy, Chris asked about a year ago, if we would stop editing spam - just report it (and post the links in the Spam and Abuse Watch forum[^])

The reasoning is simple: He tries automated systems from time to time, and if you edit the spam, and it then gets reported, the text they look at contains nothing spammy, and they get confused.
In addition, editing it resets the spam counter, so it takes longer to automatically remove.
(there is also the risk that you could get the spammer votes on your account if people aren't careful)

Just report it, post links to the member and spam in S&A and someone with appropriate permissions will delete it!
