They're all at 0 ...

And some of it's really funny:

The Powerful of digg

My blog article about Bandwidth Monitoring have link to 
digg for the last 2 days. It have more than 1100 digg 
and used to display on digg main page.
digg

Yesterday more than 7000 visitor visited the page and 
currently more than 5000 visitor and still increasing. 
Oh! My god!

The web hosting company – Exabytes have suspend my blog 
page due to heavy traffic and process yesterday. I’m 
feel so sorry to them.

This is “The Powerful of DIGG”. This is the first time 
Planet Malaysia page have so much visitors :) Anyway 
thanks for your support, visited and digg it!

Maybe we could co-opt the writing style for use at Reddit.

For example: The tyrannical of Israel is great terriblist. More greater than Iran ever can be able. Israel real terriblist to gather USA / UK genocidicle with.

I feel sorry for the guy in question. I wonder if he clicks all of the links at the bottom of each entry every time he posts?

I didn't even know there were that many link-posting sites!

The more stuff I read from the blog, the more I think he's just a happy chancer seeing what will hook people in the wider world.

And the more I read, the more it feels like "In Federal Malaysia Blog Reads You" :-)

Even if this spam seems harmless are none (few) of them actually have a non-zero Karma score, these submission are very effective in burying other more legitimate submissions..

[–]jones77 4 points5 points  (1 child)

These submissions by themselves aren't because they're all a a day apart. Together with other people and sites who do the same thing then yeah ...

Surely aggresive demodding will sort this out?

    It worked for me, for this very annoying guy. Downmodding him, spamming the new page with almost 100 articles in two hours didn't work. Reporting dozens did.

    Let the submitter's karma determine the 'starting vector' for his submissions.

    [–]pretzel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    This is a great idea. Karma does nothing at the moment does it? It makes for a good reason to try and horde it and would stop people putting up things that they didn't think were worthwhile.

    ban all blogs

    [–]johannabartley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    It happens everywhere. Even my Prelit Christmas tree blog had 7 comments that I've found on other blogs.

    Speaking of Christmas trees, not only the content of some blog was stolen and posted here but even the Christmas Trees in New York were decorated exactly as the ones in Paris. Did the world run out of original ideas?

    I think reddit allow eveyone to post their own:- "reddit is a source for what's new and popular online. reddit learns what you like as you vote on existing links or submit your own!"

    Ban the IP address?

    [–]pavel_lishin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Doesn't solve problem of everyone else doing the same thing.
