I've used MySQL to store user sessions in a small scale system - about 300 simultaneous users. The reason being that with reasonable cache and the use of MyISAM tables, you have lightning fast structured storage of large collections of session data for each user, stored in memory but accessible using a structured query language. I usually store the session details in multi-record format, never as blobs.
It makes it easier to construct tools for your system admins to see exactly what each user is doing in real-time, and even for your admins to assume and safely change the session of a logged in user for accurate real-time support.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
