How do you see so much spammers? I barely see them.

I came across one user who I would classify as a spammer, a lot of their posts were in capitals and it was coming from the same three domains -- I use an ad-blocker but the design of the sites and the non-ad elements have given me a pretty clear idea of how it must look otherwise. I have muted them but it was a tough decision, as some of their posts do actually have interesting comments on. The winning factor was it's a topic I'm generally uninterested in and their articles don't do much to change that.
