Today, I see a flood of posts by new users claiming to offer cracks, with links. I see no way to report the posts or the posters as spam.
Perhaps this is a policy for a reason but normally forums have that option.
Can you not see the Flag option?
All I see is a flag, hidden under a “…” button, which has a hover balloon saying “privately flag this post for attention or send a private notification about it”.
That wording does not suggest to me that it can be used to report spam. If it can, that needs rewording, because it’s just word salad, to me.
That’s the one, if you follow the options.

Hi Derek,
I tried flagging that post as spam and it brought an error message up and didn’t flag. Could you try flagging it to see if it is a global problem that we need to show to Brad?
Thanks,
Dave
Okay. Thanks. That really does need rewording. Just the usual “Report post” would be much clearer.
I have no idea what that balloon text is meant to convey, but the more I look at it, the less sense it makes.
Hi, Dave
I flagged them all.

I agree it is not intuitive, but I guess a “feature” of the forum software.
