There's no spam in the message as far as I can see.
It just looks like a new member trying out the forums to see how they work. Not really the best idea, and the message needs to be removed; but it's hardly a kickable offence.

Could equally be a spammer just testing if their account works.

Could be; but until they actually post spam or abuse, we should probably give them the benefit of the doubt.

I know blogs are a big grey area, but I think this guy is already getting over the limit.
Look at:
[EDIT: deleted because Sean took over]
There are a lot of links in normal text... ok. A lot of blogs have them
But the big hand pointing to the big link at the beginning and the end of the blog entry, I think that's a bit too much.
@Sean-Ewington would you like to have some words with him?
It might be worth to have a look to other items, he is quite prolific.

I'll take the big hands out. It's good to be suspicious, but sometimes for links in a blog people have just had their entries pulled without a whole of thought as to what those entries would look like (or how they would be perceived) on CodeProject. In this case I bet he shared his blog on CodeProject 8 years ago and then eventually forgot about it.
Thanks,

You changed the type to article, I suppose it was not on purpose

No it was not on purpose and now I can't change it back. We'll have to look into that ...
