Why do you think that is spam? It looks like a reasonable article to me - not something I would be interested in, but not spam-like.

The link I posted was to the comment posted on my article (notice this link ends with "?msg=4215062#xx4215062xx"), but since this spam comment was removed (thank you, whoever did that!), so link now opens the whole article)) Of course I wouldn't report my own article Laugh | :laugh:

Well I did wonder. Honesty in spammers would be so refreshing though, don't you think? Laugh | :laugh:

When that day will come, most people would be saints probably.
I should have mentioned it was a message, not an article.

It just was so not nice to offer me some "designer" handbags. I always wondered how this stuff gets to CodeProject, I doubt many people on CodeProject would want "designer handbags". May be competitors are trying to spam the site...? Confused | :confused:

Marketing Factories I suspect: people paid nearly nothing to post adverts for anything anywhere they can for twelve hours a day.

Think yourself lucky it was handbags - there are much, much worse things to be offered (particularly with pictures Dead | X|

)

Posting a file at a time of C# as a question, in groups of five with no text or anything else?
I've tried report as "not a question", and ploite messages, but he doesn't see to get the idea.
Is this abuse, and should it be reported as such?

I see he is no longer with us - ah, bless - but there is a problem with his posts? If you look at the Unanswers QA questions list, they are all still there, but unclickable.
