Frequent irrelevant solutions

If some member is posting irrelevant solutions over and over again,should it be reported here? I am not making details available in this message,but i can post the details after some members clarification. The reason is,members account gets deleted once reported here,so i don't want it to happen if its not the case of Abuse.

Let me know your view please.

If they aren't relevant to the question, then yes - it's probably abuse and should be raised here.
Chances are it's either something that can be stopped with a firm "read the question", or it's a points troll. Either way, if we don't know about it, we can't respond.

Well, in that cases I usually report the answers and give a warning to the poster.

If he/she continues... then I report the user.

M.D.V.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

They really aren't abusive comments. Nonsense, yes, but abuse - no. Given that reporting something as abuse generally leads to people being removed from the site, I would make sure you have a firm grasp of what constitutes abuse and what's just plain silly.

Re: Not abuse.

Thanks78721-Dec-13 22:22

IMO,2 comments and one solution with random characters should not be that silly. Well,if this is so,i should request some one to delete this thread or to modify the title? What can be the alternate? I will be waiting for your prompt response.
