A person could farm karma with an annual calendar reminder to post this. Perhaps someone even is!

That would be easy to check. But are people really that desperate for virtual points?

I had to install a Greasemonkey script to remove them. I found myself constantly monitoring them. I'm cured now.

EDIT: I just realized it's visible in profiles :facepalm:
