Is this abuse or just junk?
Clarification please...

Given that he's posting in an article, I'd say that this is abuse. Cry havoc and unleash the dogs of vote.

I had a look at the solutions in that list, and the first one is a poor solution, but it does answer the question. The others aren't really irrelevant to the original question, I think they just show a lack of experience - except the last two, which are indeed irrelevant, and I down voted them (something I don't normally do, but posting rubbish then posting a link to that rubbish as a solution is not on).

I think at this stage a warning instead of account closure is probably more appropriate?

So finally we should leave it for now i think. Thanks for your response.
