At one point there wasn't much validation. I suspect someone decided to be clever and crafted the vote URL by hand instead of clicking a button. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

After doing the search for loan, and producing the list of spammers yesterday, i noticed that the search for 'loan' did not include results with 'loans', is this a change needed in the search query to a 'contains' query?.
Anyway, rather than copy 6 pages of url's here, just go to the Who's Who pages and search for 'loans' and blitz away.
I did notice when going through them, 1 of them when i clicked on report/spammer, it came up 8 reports, i thought they disappeared after 5? Is this a bug?

Dutifully reported
"Cash", "payday" and "lender" seem good search term candidates when "Loans" are nuked.

Yes. Still tracking it down.

If you want us to help clear out the spam accounts, we need some compensation. There's four pages worth of users with "f*ck" in their user name, about 20 with "c*nt", and about the same with "assh*le". The current organizer limit is 25 reports. That's really not enough right now.

Sorry mate - I've taken care of 1,790 so far. I reckon I'm putting you out of a job. Or at least depriving you of amusement

Now when I am posting answers, my answer look like this[^]. Not a serious bug, but I believe it could be corrected. Error is removed on Page_refresh() though.

I had checked the first 3 pages before posting this bug but not the 7th page. Atleast I have uploaded a picture for proof.

If you refresh the page or go back to it later, the display of text is normal

This should now be fixed.

Cheers, I've loaned £200,000 so far and I'm just about to hit e-bay to grab some of the bargains the looters are putting on there.

Since apparently I have been living under a rock for the last month or so, what is the process being implemented here with the pink list. Are the all-mighty senior members reporting the user accounts to get them suspended with these lists?
I wasn't, now I am, then I won't be anymore.

These accounts are false accounts established for the purpose of pushing spam via links in their profiles or messages posted.
Myself, Nagy and Pete as well as a few others, get bored now and again and trawl the profiles looking for them. Post the list here and then everyone can visit the profile report it, and after 5 reports the account get nuked. No more spammer.
Its almosts a daily occurrence now, and Nagy christened it the Pink List.

Have you noticed you sometimes have to wait a couple of days?
i.e. the account gets created today, but they don't update the bio until say saturday?
