''Personally''..You've just shot yourself man!
Spam!!! I don't consider this a spam, if it does look like a Spam, then you need to let the person handling this #Spamming stuff do their work or perhaps they will assign you to this on their behalf. If so, then I think you've some serious cleansing to do. I've seen some #Sportstalk users spamming the platform with stuff like ''Hi'', ''Hello'', ''Good'' with tons of huge upvotes on this trashy comments. So why not start from their first. But NA, since you have some issues with the Author, I think you will rather focus on him, which i believe ain't healthy for the Sportstalk tribe. If at all, you found something fishy about the Author, you should at least inform him before taking any drastic measures.
