This character keeps bumping old threads with just a smiley face.

Just look at the first couple pages of HD threads, he was last poster on 70% of them.

I normally wouldn't care but many of the bumps caused me to think there was an update to the Hot Deal.

Marulee must be trying to up his/her post count. He/she's done over 100.

Seriously It's making it hard to track deals and just stinks of bad etiquette.

Respect the forum!!!!!!!!!

You think he/she would be nice enough to at least bump for sale/trade threads rather than old useless Hot Deals.

Weird.

Ban them! Is it a bot? A potential scammer, or spammer who wants it to look like they are a real poster by inflating their post count?

Who does the banning or is the moderator? I've never asked for anyone to be banned before.

According to the mods, he will bump no more. :) I believe he got in about 125 in 3 1/2 hrs. Maybe he'll get carpal tunnel syndrome.

Does Anandtech have the death penalty? I could be convinced to vote for it in this case.

Yep, looks like s/he created a new account under the name bloodthirsty.
