Remember, when you see a thread or post that you think is SPAM, report it by clicking the report button located on the top bar of every post (all the way too the right, on the same bar the time of the post is).

I use the Classic vBulletin theme, so depending on the theme you use, the button may be in a different spot and look differently.
Well, that right there's part of the problem. See, I was a spam-hatin' report-slappin' son-of-a-gun too, before they rolled out the (AWESOME!) minimalistic theme. Which unfortunately doesn't have a report button. So while I'll occasionally switch theme just to report an annoying spammer, I usually don't bother. And I use the minimalistic theme always on my N800s and Eee, usually on my desktop, and occasionally on my laptop, so my spam reports are probably down around 15-20% what they were...
