I'm having a hard time to understand what you were trying to point out here, but I guess this is what you were trying to say, correct me if I'm wrong. If you are talking to a certain signature campaign that is not a legit one and you are wearing their signature, then you might get a red trust from a DT as a warning, and you might get banned if you are not going to remove that signature code that you are wearing, because that just means that you are promoting a scam, for example.
And for the spammers that you were talking to, if a certain thread is being spam(well you could obviously see that)if you are giving much time for you to read all of the stuffs here, someone who has the authority could lock that thread to avoid spamming, or the thread could be deleted, simple as that.
Topic: Is it possible to remove/ban specific link from signature? (Read 267 times)
I think this particular issue was catered for when Newbie accounts were banned from wearing signatures, setting personal texts and uploading avatars.
I am very sure this has massively helped reduce advertising of scammy links on signatures and my belief is an older member who has struggled to get merit in the forum cannot risk his/her account's reputation by advertising scammy suspicious links in their signatures.
There could be a few members doing that but I think the currently system is still effective.

It's often Free domains ".tk" and auto-list that cause it.
These restrictions are tough for newbies. Phishing/malware links are the main cause of this warning, not spam or scam.
If you find someone posting phishing links, report it. "This includes URLs in its signature" when that user banned "based on rules No 6" the signature will be hidden.

Your post was a bit hard to understand, the thing is that it's not very accurate. The forum has a script/system to try to detect suspicious links, however it isn't always correct, sometimes it even ''bans'' normal text. If you are using that url on your signature, it won't get ''banned'' as far as I know, you are asking if you can report someone for their signature, right? Or if there is a way to do it that doesn't involve creating a thread or pming an admin, correct? I don't think so but you can always create a thread about it, would be easier anyways if a lot of people are using it.
My main question is, if a suspicious link removed/ban from OP that means there is some doubts about link. So if someone wear same link on his signature then how will it handled?
Only Newbies can't post certain links, users who can wear a signature aren't Newbies.~your signatures will be blacklisted from the forum by an Admin~
Update:
129 users who were wearing a yobit signature and had at least 1 good report against them in the last 14 days are banned for 14 days. All yobit signatures are wiped. Signatures containing "yobit.net" are banned for 60 days.
Sometimes I have seen on few post forum removed few link from OP. Instead of link we have seen "Suspicious link removed". I think this link removed by forum.
So if same link someone wear on signature then what will happen? Is this link will be removed same as OP? Or is there any way to remove or ban manually?

This question raise my mind due to spam of Yobit. Search button had not give me appropriate answer. That's why I made this post. If someone try to advertise their site on forum, there would be phishing link or any other suspicious link. How forum will handle that kind of link if they operate signature from outside of forum? Same like Yobit.
If there is any way to ban/removed their link then perhaps people's will make appropriate report why link should be removed or ban. Its not easy task to report one by one spam post if there is thousand spammer attacks on this forum.
So there should be something that admin could ban/removed link from signature or total signature code could be removed. Correct me if I am missing something, I can't remember if there is any way.
