Congrats to the wannabe APK noobtard for advancing the site's codebase despite me having extremely limited time to play. I added three lines of code and now Spam modded comments (and comment trees) auto-collapse and you can still moderate a comment as Spam even if it's already at the minimum score. Honestly, the folks using any other downmod on obvious Spam annoy me more than the noobtard does but that annoyance at least is now history. Changes are to hot code only, I'll put them in the repo as part of my next pull request.

Suck it, noob. --TMB

    I love it when three lines of code make a huge difference. Elegant solutions. Fun when they happen and I've been luck to notch up a few such moments over the years. "Good job!" to the anon noob guy and for TMB for making it live.

    Well, there'll be a dozen or two more by the time it hits the repo (I like things done properly.) but this will do for the moment.
