Thanks. So the spam itsself is not important so much as the author?

A link to a message often doesn't work because someone may have deleted the message before I get the message and then I don't know who posted. With a link to the user I can find the user and wipe out all of their messages if there are more than one.

If you want to stop the spammer, then the answer is yes. If all you want to achieve is to have just that single spam message deleted, then the answer is no. Then perhaps the best answer is: report the message using the Report Abuse button, and post the spammer's URL here.

Nothing added to the thread, obvious spam links.

Interestingly, the post just prior to the one by the above poster adds nothing to the thread but has no links. New spam account being set up for future abuse?

Indeed, JTANNA.

Both both our links to the post go to the top of the thread because a third identical #3946425 is inserted into the URL so it becomes this:

http://forums.adobe.com/message/3946425#3946425#3946425

I believe this is something for John to look into.

John?

I RightClicked the title of post #18, Re: "Overview" tab is silly?
then Clicked Copy Link Location, which gives this:

http://forums.adobe.com/message/3946425#3946425

If I insert it in the URL window of the browser it works in the right way.

You may click any of the identical links in posts #179&181 and this one and see it go wrong.

Interesting...

This person posted a very thorough and quite likely useful tutorial on creating a particular text effect in Photoshop. Trouble is, it's rich with links pointing to his web site (each photo is a link, as well as the explicit link he posted at the bottom).

User: http://forums.adobe.com/people/photoshopeffects
Thread: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/909498?tstart=0

At what point does a post have enough value to allow the poster the luxury of a certain amount of spamming?
