Because friendbots seem to be taking over LiveJournal these days, those of you with accounts here should keep this link handy:
Report Suspected Bot

If you think that account that just friended you out of the blue that's posting badly-written fiction, sex tips (in English or Russian), advertisements (of course), or whatever might possibly be a bot, just report it already.

If we must have bots around here, let them be entertaining bots, not this unoriginal crap.

You can also hover over their icon and get a link to report them as a bot.

True, if you haven't turned hover menus off (I hate 'em). If you do have those menus on, though, you don't need to hover over the userpic--from what I'm told, hovering over that little LJ icon next to the username will work if there is no usericon available.
