I think it's critical that we get enough reports for the user in order to stop the flood. Only three so far...

Um, I am not sure how to report the problem. But here is a post that is posted multiple times, by different accounts.

First this was posted, http://www.codeproject.com/script/Articles/ArticleVersion.aspx?waid=181421&aid=1023371[^] by http://www.codeproject.com/script/Membership/View.aspx?mid=10628815[^]

Then this was posted 10 minutes (or so) http://www.codeproject.com/script/Articles/ArticleVersion.aspx?waid=181438&aid=1023415[^] by http://www.codeproject.com/script/Membership/View.aspx?mid=5538628[^]

I was considering to find a Repost report flag for such cases also. Perhaps a request! Also I leave the decision to the editors and admins for actions. Smile | :)

It looks it is not related or repost, since your link goes to nuked one and his not. Probably rejoined

This spammer http://www.codeproject.com/script/Membership/View.aspx?mid=11945899[^]
writes comments with pure commercial advertizement; I detected it in comments to my Q&A answer:
For a program to be run on Windows and OS X, what programming language(s) is best to use?[^].

Please don't remove this comment until the spammer's account is banned.

At this moment, I can see 40 comments looking identical.

A QA answer came up in moderation:

Another notable license management service which will allow you to protect your .NET software is [REDACTED]. The service is completely free, you pay only regular payment service providers fees (e.g. [REDACTED]).

(I removed the service url and the popular online payment service because that was part of the detection)

OK, it's free - he says - but...He joined today, and the question he was answering was posted in 2011 with two existing solutions.

I think it's spam, but if it isn't, it's abuse...
