    its being taken care off...
    you can block someone from sending you pms by adding the person to your buddy list and do a "Message Ban"

    This PM spamming has now been confirmed and the user banned.

    Just to clarify, PM spamming is a very serious offence, and the rule is highlighted in bold every time you send a PM using the PM form.

    Yes, PM spammers are usually banned b/c of the offense. So it would be good to report the member's name here or to an admin/mod.

    PM Spam is doing advertising in PM's, in this case. I guess in general it means sending mass PM's.

    Seriously, you can't go around and spam people with PM's to sign up your forums, etc. That is disobeying the rules and is a serious offense, you want to advertise, do it via your signature or another forum.
