I did not think that was the case. Are you certain? Or guessing? Doesn't really matter in the end, just curious.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

You will find my name among those that closed the account. But I reported only the post and not the account.
I recognised this some time ago when reporting real spam and found the account to be closed already including my name when trying to report that too.
But this seems to apply to forum posts only as far as I know (not to Q&A posts).

Interesting.

So, you have an email that you think is spam but your email client hasn't caught it. Do you follow it? Do you let the spammer know that there's rich pickings there?

Nope. But I also don't report it as SPAM unless it is.

So you leave it to others to do the heavy lifting and dirty work for you. Don't get upset at those of who do that work for you then.

You see a brown faced gentleman with a beard, do you tell the police there might be a bomber or do you let him kill women and children?
In a culture of fear no-one wins.
Don't fear the spammer, he might only want people to look at his jar of meat paste.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

Way to go with a disproportionate analogy. That escalated very quickly. Given the same circumstances as in this thread, would I do it again. Definitely and without hesitation - armchair quarterbacks notwithstanding.

Isn't that a quote from George Zimmerman?

I did have a look at the link again and followed it all the way through and to my surprise discovered that it's actually an app - it's not satirical in nature.
There is an app that allows you to save files to your home computer - seriously! No wonder I thought it was satirical!
It was in fact spam - my bad!

Funny thing it is...As now I asked Chris to reopen the account, and he did...
Let see the next move of the member...we can wait with the next ban for now (sometime those spammers are post and forget)...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Not bad enough that the Panthers played like a bunch of tailor's dummies operated with knotted up strings pulled by blindfolded children or that their offensive co-ordinator's play calling was indeed offensive, nay outrageously stupid, I had to listen to bloody Coldplay at half-time. Four hours (four wee small hours to boot) that I shall never get back. 
Who can I sue?

I take it some kind of sporting event didn't go well for you? 
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

It was Bulldog, Rounders or Netball. Not sure which.

It was something that the Americans call "football", where the ball is never allowed to touch anyone's foot. The rules being:
- stand around for 10 minutes
- throw the ball around for 10 seconds
- jump up and down shouting "touchdown" with the ball held high above the head
- repeat for four hours
- stand around for a further ten minutes looking at the clock
- declare someone the winner

On the contrary, kicking is a vital part of the game.

I watched a superbowl live some years ago (when the Broncos also won), but I don't remember any kicking; unless it was of the opposition. 
|
|
|
|
|
So you don't remember 11 kick-offs, 8 punts, and 2 field goals? How much were you drinking that night?

I didn't drink much at all, I was just bored to tears.

Last time the Broncos won was 1999. Over a dozen kicks in that game.
Ah don't lean on me man, cause you can't afford the ticket

Would help if their players didn't keep getting stupid fouls. For example, when that one guy got the flag for unsportsmanlike conduct, I was just like -_- really.
