Figured I'd just let someone more official reply. But generally, Opera Software isn't interested in people trying to make money off the webspace they provide for free, if you're making money then you can afford a real webhost which might also provide you with real merchant services. And of course search engines will downgrade pageranks of sites with a lot of commercial content - if you're posting here for search rank then it actually hurts My Opera.

This one's linking to a mixture of free software, as well as commercial software RARS with keygens included or cracks for them to remove the trial limitations.

Seems there might be another spammer logging in on a few accounts. I'm not really sure but someone might want to take a look at these.

It looks like a business directory is being used to post content. Not really sure what to make of them.

Gee, looks more like some school English class. While they all seem juvenile (and probably involving a bit of cut-and-paste), nothing there that would count as spam at this point.

There's been a couple more of those blogs just added.

http://my.opera.com/Karlin2745/about/
http://my.opera.com/Beggs3477/about/

I would say these are all bot pages being put up.

You are right though, not exactly spam yet.

It's the last entry in each blog which I find particularly suspect - just the user name as the post title and content.

It appears to the be same 30 or so entries repeated again and again and again, every one with a link to a matching blogspot page.

Listed one person twice also.

Reza.com has been banned several times, the first time was actually a mistake because someone though "reza.com" was a website. He got reinstated for that naturally, also the first time that he was banned for having illegal content and promised to clean it up. His blog admittedly looks better than it has sometimes, but I still see some illegal content (ripped DVDs and cracked games). Knowing him, he's probably got 3 other blogs anyway ...

Not like it'll stop him from posting anonymously or remove the anonymous comments from your blog, you may have to disable anonymous comments. However, he's banned.

PS - next time, try the right thread - the "Report comment spam here" thread. Thanks.

Why is that?

Presuming he's the same character who had several ... related names in the past and has been banned before, I'll ban him anyway, but he had no blog.
