I've been doing something similar -- just reporting them as I see them and then blocking the user (to at least clean up my own feed). But really since I've seen so many and have been reporting so many of them, I'm wondering what is actually being done about this. Am I just creating my own spam stream to whoever moderates that report queue ? What actually happens to those users once they're reported?

Seriously I dont know what happens to the reported posts. But today, it's like anything.... the volume of spams in such a short span of time. Couldnt even see a sane post in the latest section for some time. Something needs to be done to this
