Out of curiosity, is this message an automated one that triggers e.g. on IP matches across multiple upvotes, or did you post this one manually?

I always post manually. Automated posts aren't in the spirit of the site. If we ever did add them, we'd use a different username.

It probably wouldn't make sense to automate anti-abuse-related posts, though, since then people would have a new vector through which to game them.
