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?

This user[^] has been a member for 8.5 years. Of his six QA "answers"[^], three are not answers, but the other three contain a link to a spam site called "getmonthlypay".

Error in datetime variable[^] (Solution #2)
How to create Textbox dynamically in c sharp ?[^] (Solution #2)
Make A setup project[^] (Solution #2 - link previously removed by another user)

The spam link is cunningly hidden behind a URL shortening service.

His rep graph seems to show he is still logging in regularly, and that that pattern hasn't changed: I'd say it's him spamming. So hit the "spammer" button, and he can explain all to the Hamsters to get his account back.

Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Not that I don't trust you, but since you deleted the question I have no evidence to mark the user as a spammer. Sniff | :^)
