That’s definitely a spam post! But surprisingly it doesn’t look like they have other spam content, if you check out their user page https://www.ifixit.com/User/119434/Flarn..., you can see pretty benign comments and no other evidence of spam. If it’s a single post, feel free to vote to remove it, but I don’t think one post warrants a ban unless it’s super offensive!

@blakeklein totally agree with that decision. This is an odd and off-the -wall spam from this user. Time will tell if his account may have been compromised and somebody is using his credentials to spam.

This is new on me. I guess he falls under the definition of repetition, rather than real malicious content. I'll delete his content and issue a temporary ban.

@evan @sam looks like this one https://www.ifixit.com/User/2544683/Kevi... is hiding the spam as references to what appears as valid questions. All questions have been pulled of other internet forums.

@oldturkey03 I'm only seeing one question. Did you delete the others?

by

@evan Yes I did. I think there was 1 in Answers and 4 in meta

by

Ah. I wasn't checking meta for spam. It should be taken care of now.

@evan thank you Sir. As always, I appreciate your work and efforts.
