I don't often do this, but I am going to point out an item on the events calendar that is obviously spam, and name names. Something's gotta be done to clear up the events calendar.

Name: PARTY FREE MONEY AND JOBS
Type: Nightlife/Entertainment
Mature Content: No
Date: [various, every half hour]
Duration: 3:00 [even though it is posted every half hour]
Run By: Precious Messmer, Rasheeda Writer, jozlyn1 Barbosa, ScarfaceAlcapone Barbosa, Lucky Luciano Barbosa, Maleek Barbosa, Rashawn Barbosa, Scarface Corleone, Launa Valeeva, Jozlyn Jenkins
Location: Dunbeath (97, 53, 95) [every single time]
Cover Charge: None

Description:
1-THIS EVENT IS 3 HOURS
2-THIS IS NOT AN ALL DAY EVENT

[Bullcrap! You got this posted every half hour for twenty four hours! This is NOT a 3 hour event, it IS an all day event! In fact, it's been going on since at least September, if not before, every single day! And even two days into the future! Liars!]

[The rest is advertisement for their club, their mall, etc. There needs to be a place where such abuse can be reported. I'm getting sick of slogging my way through the spam in order to find actual events.]

I agree, Max. It's many posts like this that sometimes makes the event calendar worthless. There's a religious group that does the same thing. Have you submitted an RA?
