Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning

The second one has a solved QA question and three comments which does not contain any links besides one to SO in his question.

Do you remember why you refused his post? Maybe it contained a related link?

Then the user might not be reported.

OK - it's just an unformatted code dump; there's no real explanation or anything actually useful to help a reader work out how to apply the techniques, but ... I'm leaning pretty heavily towards "plagiarised" and "Abusive/Troll" on this one. Your thoughts, people?

I think the user will spam soon, company name as nick and created today... well it is very probable, but yet, I don't think he is to be reported yet.

Only that post and although the question is two years old, it is still in the first page of the forum. If one doesn't pay attention then one could just read the questions without noticing the time stamp (it has already happened to me too)

I even find the answer useful to a certain point and related to the question and has no links anywhere (I edited the message to see the "code")

What about waiting a bit before nuking?
