Warn members who respond to obvious spam

Members who continue to reply to threads that are obvious spam (like here https://www.rx7club.com/non-classifieds-violations-59/brand-new-nokia-n96-16gb-%24240-apple-iphone-16gb-%24200-playstation-3-80gb-%24230-744905/) are just as bad as the original poster since they're effectively bumping a spam thread. If they just ignored the thread it would die quickly since there is plenty of activity in most sections. PMing a moderator would be much more worthwhile, it's not like they're getting back at the spammer by posting these comments.

This isn't too big a deal but it has been especially frustrating lately since it seems like these threads are popping up more and more often.

We have requested users not to respond to spammers.

The flip-side is that if they do keep bumping the thread we are more likely to spot it.

Warned or not, I can tell you that users will never cease to attempt to berate the spammers, my best recommendation is to just click on that Report Post Icon = https://www.rx7club.com/images/buttons/report.gif and a moderator will take care of the thread ASAP.

Thanks!
