I guess that the point that raised the report was that some of those answers, were not solutions at all.
I personally reported at least 8 solutions as "not an answer", "offtopic" or "unclear / incomplete", but other answers were legitime and didn't take any action.
The suspicious fact was a block of 15+ answers within 1 hour for old questions (some were 2010 and even 2009), with doubtfull quality.
And this guy might have a group of legitime answers, many others just post some crap probably because they don't know that a new answer brings that thread to the light at the top of the list. In that cases, I agree with reporting it.
As always... it is up to us and our common sense

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Oh, don't get me wrong. I think a good number of members should be knocked out of here for their "answers". I just say the reasons for that should be different. The problem is just the opposite: sometimes, community shows the tolerance to extreme abuse, the tolerance I cannot explain.
Just look at my recent report:
http://www.codeproject.com/Messages/4882973/Fake-plagiarized-Q-A-answers-by-verbose-copying-of.aspx[^].
The check up of several posts in a row shows that he posts verbose copies of other answers, not only without crediting them, but without any thinking, by keywords.
I tried to report members posting something I called "fake answers", by one or another reason. The are really shameless people, but some accounts survive even now. I understand that care should be taken to avoid false accusation, but number of cases (including the one referenced above) are way to obvious…

That's why I like to post "gone" or similars here. So people who check the forum can know, which ones could be still active.
I remember that report. I gave my 5 cent, but if we don't get to the full dolar... then the machine won't react 
I leave towards home. Have a nice day

Both. Political statement and a few dozen links to who knows what.

We can't ban him for political statements: DD would be gone in moments!

DD doesn't usually do that in tech forums. Only in The Lounge and/or similars.

Only because he rarely goes to the tech forums.
Wait until his campaign for the Luton Council position gets up and running...

Oh yes, the next will be his third attempt, and the one he expects to succeed.

It is against Lounge rules. 
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

User has over 200 answers posted. It doesn't seem to be SPAM or abuse. Perhaps adding a comment to their solution to give more detail would be more helpful.

His other article - the one you asked him "what are you talking about?" is plagiarised.
From here: Number to Arabic text by 27 digits before point and 27 digits after point[^]
How did I find it? Easy: the moron said "thank you" when he stole it...
