Welcome to Webmaster World.

Don't worry too much about poor English, many people writing here have English as their first language, and still get things wrong. :)

I think you are asking why your spam reports to Google have not been actioned yet.

If you do a search on this forum using "google spam reports" you'll see lots of similar questions and a ton of answers.

You'll also see that it's the way you have given your spam report that may determine whether Google actions it or not. Basically you need to keep it clean and short. Don't list hundreds of URL's that you think are spam. List one or two of the worst offenders and let Google handle them.

Hello Therealboy,
Dont worry about the English, its OK.
One of the posters here (GoogleGuy) is a Google employee and he appears to sometimes personally deal with spam reports if you mention his Webmasterworld nickname together with your own. If you are in the same thread as him and complaining about spam he will sometimes invite you to send details to him there and then. Often not much happens immediately but it seems that in the main they use the reports to develop the algo to remove spam on a large scale rather than looking at each report and dealing with it individually so you may have to wait for results.
