Spam or not?

Poll #1730537 Spam or not?
This poll is closed.
Open to: All, detailed results viewable to: All. Participants: 40

I just got a comment in this entry. (Go have a look.) The comment is brief, polite and encouraging -- but also weirdly generic, and from an account I've never heard of. So I put it to the masses before deciding whether to *plonk* it: is it spam or not?

I don't care about lunchmeat, but like ticky-boxes.

ETA: Okay, poll is now done enough, and the spammy comment has been deleted. For future reference the account in question was "nodeshop". Still not quite sure what its game is, but it appears to be fronting a bot of some sort...
