I know.

I've thought about responding, but these things never go well ... and he only needs one more kick to close the account anyway!

I know... user created today, polemic topic, a lot of spam-setups...

But so far... No spam yet, from this user.

To keep an eye on it OK, but to report now is a bit precipitated IMO.

OP's message is almost certainly a spam setup. No other reason to post such a comment.

I agree with you, but still keep my opinion. You and other people will report, I will wait until the payload comes (if he stays that long)

Note:
I am not telling you, you are doing wrong. I just say there is a 90% probability you are right. But for me, the other 10% still deserves a chance. I am in the side of "no mercy" when it comes so far, but reporting "just in case" is maybe frightening possible new legit users (which I now they are the minimal expression). It is only... I think that being that "hard" could be counted as a tiny win for the spammers, since they are still interfering the "normal" life of the site.
But... another time... it is only one opinion, and your report is fully valid for me.

Spam set up in the lounge?

As I said "looks like", meaning I am not sure, but we should keep watch on further posts.

Got a spam response (reported below) very quickly, and the country is the same, both accounts created on the same day, ...
I suspect a setup here.

You may post the other profile - with the spam response. That one sure for kicking...
This one can have the doubt...
