I just noticed I can no longer quickly suspend spammers, I have to write an email to them (most have invalid emails anyway).

I know this is to appease the one or two users per year who, when their first 5 posts are just links to their own site, come back to bitch that it wasn't spam but we get a LOT more real spammers than these phantom-spammers and this seems like a lot more effort to go through - we're not all paid SE staff you know.
