Tell me: For all the complaining many of us (and I include myself in this) might do about spam...
questions and ill-thought out or clumsily worded inquiries, as well as those of explicit adult content which cry out to be flagged, isn't it much better, infinitely more fun, pleasant, and even productive (from the point of view of inspiration for hubs), spending time here, in the Q&A, than trying to endure a period of sustained engagement in the forums, which very quickly turn into mean-spirited, incoherent zoos?
Yes I think what you are saying is that you spend more time fighting spam then you do creating good content and what does this get you? I don't think it does much good to be honest we have to assume that a simple flag is enough and let it go.
Yes Flag the adult content questions and ignore that bulk of the nonsensical questions They very fact that they are answered encourages them to continue.
I just flagged some profiles that were just for the promotion of flesh trade ( no hubs what so ever). and it just cuts this menace at the roots.

Almost everyone is complaining about the QAP for some reason or another. But, if you think about it you'd know that it's one of the best things to ever happen on HP. Of course there are going to be collateral damages, but we'd at least be getting rid of people who right here just in order to get...
