On another forum I admin, we've found its best to not even respond to spam. let the forum admins discretely eliminate the posts......what's procedure here?

I believe letting the admins ban is the usual method. Just have to make them aware of the culprit. And yes ignoring theor posts is a good rule of thumb.

Reporting the posts really helps. Yes, please don't feed the spammers and/or trolls by responding to them.
