Spammer in QA - CodeProject

Ultimately, the reader would have to pay for the library as the "trial version" is limited, so it's gotta be spam.

Yeah - I looked at the site and saw the trial was limited.

It's gotta go!

Don't you just love it when posting a bit of spam in the wrong place means the total spam count of the universe ends up reduced? Laugh | :laugh:

Yeah, that is the same reason I did not report that article here. Those guys are actually quite good at delivering their spam articles - you and I have previously discussed one of 'their' articles here, which eventually did get approved and occasionally comes into the moderation queue with updates.
I am not sure I would have reported the article Pete reported above if the author had responded to posts in the Comment section, but 1 Article and 1 Message in over 6 years has a certain smell to it.

What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

Answer list empty and user with 11 atm (probably not all choose the same report, or there is delay in server)

Or I think it's spam. It's garbage if it isn't. Mind you, spam is garbage, so...who cares?
