i imagine the fact they're gaming the stackalytics system means they're 
aware of what their doing and no one has called them out on it yet. i'm 
a glass half empty individual :)

this has been discussed in some form already in the past[1] and it'll 
probably keep happening. i get the feeling if you tell some to stop 
putting useless reviews in one place, they'll do it somewhere else or at 
random frequencies -- you may be endlessly chasing white noise. if it 
only affects lazy managers using stackalytics then it's probably not a 
big deal for now? i can't imagine the current useless reviews are 
swaying the overall stats of a project (aside from top global reviewers)

i like anteaya/your posts, hopefully it helps.
