I know Dave believes in the spam report page. And hell, what can you lose?
I don't believe in the spam report page personally. I don't think it works for adult related requests. I think google ignores all adult related spam reports and most other adult related complaints, unless forced to act by DMCA filings.
But, it's the only tool available, so you might as well try it.
I used to report spam using that method, never saw any measurable result, and gave up.

Bill, although I do wonder if Google has any interest in adult realted spam reports, site problems, etc. But from what I have heard, a spam report that is not adult related related does not do much either. Most people say that google uses spam complaints for engineering purposes to try and design future algo changes that will detect and penalize for things such as hidden text, hidden links,cloaking, etc, etc......but that they do not take specific action against individual sites unless it is something very very serious. (I personally have never heard of even a very very serious case that was acted upon)
