This[^] member joined just today and has done nothing but posted (40 at last count) comments telling people to go to another website to get their questions answered, but in his words, it's not spam.

I respectfully disagree with the good Trevor30. Of course it is spam.

This[^] member is pretty much doing nothing but posting links to his own website in order to drive traffic there, 3 out of 4 "answers" and 2 out of 3 comments. I warned him that it was abuse but he came back posting links again.

I think it's a borderline case. I'd give him enough rope and see what happens.

He is still posting his spam. I am deleting them as fast as I can.

OK. When I looked he only had 3 solution posts up and they at least looked like potential answers to the questions being posed. If he's not taking advise to cut it out then 'off with his head' as the Queen of Hearts would say, although I don't see anything spammy at the moment so I think you well on top of it.

Now spammers are becoming intelligent and intelligent, sometimes in my blog I also get confused that what is spam or not. Anyways, that member is a spammer. He scans for "printing" in and comments similar links. But mostly offtopic, for example, someone wants to print a page, but the link given is of printing barcodes.
This member Should be nuked ASAP.

There is a link at the bottom of that article that links to the original article here on CP.
Still somebody ought to talk to them about this.
Cheers!

This is totally a spam... I have seen this in all forums and was about to come here to report it and  it's here too
|

That is precisely why I did not report it (and how I interpret the Irony comment from CM) - it was self-reporting spam.
