  Is there any way to report blogs that consist of spam?
  I stumbled upon one that kept posting adds every few seconds, most likely some sort of bot.
  Thanks :)

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  We have another way of reporting as well. If you look at the top of your blog along the navbar you will find a drop down menu under “Blog Info”. There you will find a “report as spam” button. When you click it a new page loads with a report form you can complete and send to Staff. The drop down “Blog Info” menu is found both on the front of our blogs and on the dashboard side as well. :)
