Not spam or abuse, but off topic. I reported the post but not the user.

Okay, thank you. (Well, such a far-off-topic post is a kind of abuse, anyway.) Probably you are right: the report should apply just to this post. Other posts by OP were legitimate.

Not abuse, just a confused poster. I think it's the start of a competition entry but he doesn't know where to post it.

The poster is "she" not "he"

Since "she" does not identify "her" sex either positively or negatively in "her" profile, it is internet practice to assume male pronouns unless otherwise specified. Or you end up with every comment on the internet referring to "him/her", "his/hers", and so forth (which is stupid), or by referring to everyone with the neutral pronoun "it" which is derogatory and annoying.
Since when did a persons sex become important on the internet anyway (outside Gentleman's Special Interest sites)?

You can guess it from the name, Female names are generally softer to pronounce. And that name is also an female name (meaning clouds)

I'm aware of that. And therefore, many woman rights activities are rallying outside near the assembly. Demanding "Ladies first".

If I knew how to pronounce Indian names, probably I could. But like the majority of this site (and indeed the internet in general) I don't. You would probably have similar problems with Welsh names! Besides, does use of a "female name" as your username on the internet mean that you are female? And should you be treated differently as a result?
The beauty of the internet is that your gender, race, religion, sexual orientation, political leanings, etc. does not matter: what and how you think is the important thing. You have no proof one way or the other that anyone you communicate with is male or female, black or white, gay or straight. I could easily be an Oriental female single parent amputee who votes for the death penalty for having Ginger hair, for all you know.

This member[^] posted 7 nonsense questions today for no other reason than he could accept his own answers posted at roughly the same time. I am thinking that he just wants to abuse the system to boot his rep. One "answer" he accepted was a copy/paste of the code from his "question".

Yeah. I accidently initially posted in wrong forum and I think that attracted the attention of the hamster brigade.

Why do people do this? (*) It's not like you can actually do anything with your points. I doubt any employer would give you a job based on your CodeProject "score", and certainly not without looking at how you came by it.
As Bruce Forsyth famously never said: What do points make? Sod all.
* Rhetorical question.

The user in question had been a member for 2+ years so my guess is that he went off his medication and went on a rampage of asking his own questions and then giving himself answers. Kind of like talking to himself only through posting in forums.

Do I know what "rhetorical" means?[^] 
Yeah, my post should probably have had the "rant" icon.

Seems to have stopped by now. Accounts are deleted but thanks to cache you can still post for about half an hour.
The signature is in building process.. Please wait...

I'm hoping Chris can perform some wizardry to either block him permanently, or have a quiet word. With a LART
