looks suspicious to me, just joined and posting vague 1 line replies to a number of old threads.

I could be wrong but.....

Edited to remove the link. It looks like someone deleted the user I was suspicious about, but the next person to sign up has then aquired the same user ID, therefore the link I supplied now points to a legitimate user!

This will need a site admin to deal with it, forum moderators have no power there. Given the nature of previous events of this kind, I wouldn't be surprised if more comment threads than just that one have had the same treatment.

Gone now. You see, this is what happens when our overlords don't disable a user the first time he's reported (yes, this spammer has done this before).
