Having had the chance to see the posts in question, I notice they are literally copy-pasted from previous posts with an image appended. Sometimes meaningless in context, like a repost of Kovid Goyal's response to someone.
Yes, and that one's now history as well.

We have one who's even trickier than that. They'll copy posts from similar sites, add their hidden one-pixel tracking graphic, and post them at MobileRead in a forum where they're on-topic. If someone didn't know to look behind the words on the screen, they'd never know they were looking at spam.

Thanks, eschwartz.
