User "cynthiarestrada" is spamming those "i got fired then became a spammer and now I'm rich" things.
In lieu of a "ban" button, here is my appeal to remove spam. Hopefully it'll get heard.
Here's a 250 GTO for your time...

Mods can ban spammers, but we can only do so from their comments. Link?

Y U no link? The best we can do is terminate rights to comment on Oppo.

Already blocked. They shouldn't be able to comment here. Let me know if you see them comment again. (Would mean that there is an issue with the blocking mechanism).

Yeah. A few minutes ago, I got my first spam replys not to a post of mine, but to my comments. Yay, me!
After at least five years on Kinja, I finally had a good reason to use the "dismiss" button.

you know, his sister makes like a boatload of cash by working at home on her laptop computer. Why else would he spend so much time spreading the good news? You should be thankful.

is there a way to report people who claim they made $19846 last month, and make $69 an hour, and then they post the exact same comment on like 45 different articles.

Make a post, or grab one of the mods, or send a note to Kinja via this form:
http://help.gawker.com/customer/porta…
All I / the mods here can do is block them from Oppo. The folks at the other end of that form can nuke them from orbit.

it would be nice if there was some way to almost have an automated bot that detects people making the exact same comment a bunch of times in a row, and then just delete their account.

Oh, that's a trivially easy bit of code, actually.I'm suprised they haven't implemented it...(the core of the argument is if $stringToPost==$stringLastPosted {do.ban(UserPosting);})
