chris is the best to answer this I feel - but outside of checking their IP or connection - you really can't outside of logging all their comments then determining from that search whether its a bot or not.

if a pattern is found such as you say, then a temporary ban may be in order to see if they voice their displeasure. then again, you can simply ban anything that has a reference to LC and you'll be fine LOL
