Sorry I think I am missing the source of your frustration; is it you being put down for reporting a spam attack or is it because there was a disagreement regarding whodunnit?

I merely wanted you to paste a log for "if simply posting "i reported" is fingerpointing, im out." to understand why just reporting can be interpreted this way.

I still feel pasting of log without naming whodunnit is a transparent practice instead of it being hidden away between the few people in board and/or council...
