Sent an incredibly vulgar sexual private message to my fiancee (member name Spaggyj) and, when told he'd be reported if he pulled that shit again, sent a vulgar and abusive message to me. Sick fuck needs to get the hell off this site.

I'm not sure if this is the right place to report this, but this user http://my.opera.com/kimo1988/ was a friend of a friend who was sending messages to her trying to force her to change her religion. She blocked him, but he has left comments in her photo albums. As she is having a lot of personal problems, she finds these comments offensive. Can anything be done, please? I wish to respect her privacy, so will not name her publicly. Thank you.

Wrong thread, since you aren't talking about someone who sent you spam private messages - this usually goes into the "Report spam blogs" thread. I've sent her a warning, we'll see if she fixes her user photo ...

Received unsolicited friend request from 4Rent: http://my.opera.com/4Rent/

Also, the page where one goes to see a friend request has no link or infomation where to go to report spam. One has to work through two or three screens using Contact at the bottom. Shouldn't abuse reporting be made easier to find?

Unsolicited friend requests are quite common and not in themselves considered spam. However, some of the blog posts and the About page for that user look like spam, and I won't mention her avatar ...

Please report in the correct thread (the one entitled Report comment spam here). I can't delete anonymous comments (it requires an admin - or of course the blog owner), and the people who need to see your post may not look in this thread. Thanks.
