The Down Vote Bots are Back!

The bots are coming!  The bots are coming!

When Disqus decided to nuke the channel system, I looked for the silver lining.  I was hoping that the assault of the Down Vote Bots would cease.  I especially believed this to be true when my account stopped losing votes for a 12 hour period, before and after Disqus did their thing.  I was wrong.  It has started up again, and it looks like I will eventually have to start from square one again.

What has been the experience of others out there?
