    It looks like it is possible to report a user for abuse (and presumably spam) again if you refresh the page after reporting. Naturally, I didn't test this extensively, so I don't know if the multiple reports actually count or if the display just updates.

    What is this talk of release? I do not release software. My software escapes leaving a bloody trail of designers and quality assurance people in its wake.

      If you click twice on the "Spam" or "Abusive/Troll" link, then your report won't count twice, but you'll be able to see the current count of reports. Sometimes I click twice on the report link to see how many reports the spammer already has, but my report won't count twice.

        Oh, good to know. I was getting a bit worried.

        What is this talk of release? I do not release software. My software escapes leaving a bloody trail of designers and quality assurance people in its wake.
