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?

This one uses the same styling as the one I previously reported (hidden links):
spammer[^]
messages[^]
I hope this is not caching up and that it's just the same person.

This one is rather creative:
~~spammer[^]~~
~~messages[^]~~
~~answers[^]~~

IMPORTANT: Don't glance over the messages and answers so lightly, they contain hidden links.
This really should not be allowed to do, I mean even now they can be easily unseen, but if he added one more styling to it then it would be almost impossible.

EDIT: one message remains:
~~message[^]~~, note the link is hidden due to its color!!!

Everything's gone apart from this message[^], which doesn't have the option to flag it as spam. D'Oh! | :doh:

However, if you go to the current version of the article[^], the flag does appear. Looks like a bug to me.

Delivered the last kick. I love the smell of kicked spammers in the morning (it's 8:57 AM here) it smells like... victory? Maybe no but I cannot kick my colleagues so I have to cope with it somehow.

Spamish selfpromoting behavior

This guy[^]. I'm not really sure what to call this behavior, but he generally only links to his own site and answers with a project link to a third party site.

I feel that all the necessary code should be posted in the answer, and the link is just a reference to a more detailed explanation. This is what I told him anyway, but I haven't reported him for anything, but I do feel he is running on the edge of what's acceptable behavior.
