Yes. Doing so will point them out and we can ban them a lot easier.

I've been deleting their posts when they've been reported, and even gone to their profiles to find all other posts they've made. Zap Zap.

Yeah, I usually flag the spambots. What about IP bans, and/or limiting permissions of new members so that they are unable to create a new topic until they reach a post count of 5-10? Really put them to work if they want to spam/scam our forum. :snax:
