    The 60 second rule is very irritating, I understand it could be abused. I sometimes see 3-6 posts of spam on one page and I try to report them all but I get really frustrated having to wait 3 minutes -6 minutes to clean up 6 posts, can this be shortened at all?

    Or maybe make it to mutli report like we have multi quote but like one thread had 2 people flaming each other not related to topic at all and i didn't want to waste 3 minutes to report them but i had 2 :( can we do like a multi report idk

    I just report one post and say there are a bunch in the same thread and most mods seem to take the extra step to go through the thread to do all the posts.

    If there is multiple spam in one thread, I click the little "##" at the top right of the post, I copy/paste all them in a notepad(That are spam)
    Then I report one post, and put
    "As well as:" and list the other ones that are spam.

    This is much easier on us. It's definitely my preferred way of dealing with mass spam on a thread. Report one, and mention there's heaps.
