First off, the [Message Removed] feature is a brilliant idea. But If a message is marked as spam or inappropriate, and there are no replies , then the message should be sent to hell for burning. It must be tossed off the boards right away. This way, regular CPians will be encouraged more toward marking such messages as inappropriate (spam/abuse) rather than replying to such trolls. Trolls will vanish, making the board a better place.
*Begin edit*Some trolls may reply to their own message so that the message won't be tossed! This may be an exception.*End edit*

Good idea.

Two things:
1. I feel they serve as a warning to others.
2. You can't reply to them after they are spam.

Well, you need not warn trolls. They will keep to troll. (just my thought, although I seem to slightly agree with you here)

It still makes the board look like an unclean toilet.

The reason they are left there is to illustrate to spammers and abusers what will happen when they post material that is unwanted on the site.

I totally agree with what you say. But I am not bragging, the board looks terrible with plenty of [Message Removed] entries, a few of them with replies too which makes it even uglier. My suggestion is to eliminate the spammers and their *belongings* completely, mercilessly, then and there.
*Begin Edit* One can easily realise the amount of work that should have been done to create a community like this. But now Idiots have a chance to make it look dirty, if not they do have a chance to troll.*End Edit*

I think the board looks even more terrible with the crap that's left IN the forum that should otherwise be [Message Deleted].

Sounds like what King Edward of England did to Wallace's body to warn people who were plotting against his authority. He quartered it and placed bits of it all over his kingdom. It had the opposite effect.

You may wish to have a look at the Soapbox - it doesn't look good in there.

Spammers might get happy just to make the forum look ugly by posting many spams. If the message is deleted and gone, they would be feel helpless and would not try again after seeing the message disappear completely.

Well said. I think I failed to coin it this accurately.

"Are you sure you want to navigate away from this page? You will loose any unsaved text."
In Firefox: Hit reply on any message, enter some text, try to close the tab, and you'll get that error message.

Actually yes, it did.
A couple of fresh wooden stakes and a mallet has fixed the problem for good.

Is the "Cancel" button a new addition to the message editor page or have I been eating too many ham sandwiches? If it's the former, would you consider right justifying, moving it further away from the "Preview" button, or adding a confirmation dialog when the message content is non-empty?
I'm tired of cancelling my intricately formatted posts when I meant to preview them. 
Also, the "Cancel" button doesn't add any client-side functionality not already possible by pressing the browser's "Back" button.
Thanks,
