As BlinkList continues to grow and gain more traction we are starting to see more and more "bad guys" that are trying to abuse the system. While we believe that "people are basically good" there is always a few bad apples that will try to ruin everything for the rest of us.

However, we are committed to keep BlinkList spam free so that we can continue to have the freshest and most interesting discovery pages on the web.

To help us, the BlinkList community can now start to flag spammers by just going to the user page and clicking on "flag user as spammer."

Users that have been spammed will be reviewed and if they are spamming BlinkList their accounts will be immediately deleted. No worries, if you are a good user and get flagged by accident then your account is safe since every account that is flagged is reviewed before any action is taken.

We hope that together we can ensure that BlinkList will continue to be one of the single best places to discover interesting new articles, sites, and resources online. If you have not checked out the discovery pages in a while just go here to learn more about "ajax" for example.

So, lets get started and start flagging! It's actually quite satisfying.
