As of right now the lurk page is basically a "trending" page so I guess it would be possible to get a bogus submission with some bogus comments to end up there. I suppose mk could make it to where a post doesn't make the "lurk" page unless it has comments from an established hubskier. That could be one way to eliminate any BS posts from being seen by our Hubski "guests". We wouldn't want any newcomers to get the wrong impression.
As for the external posts getting hit with BS posts, I think lessismore is right, just "ignore" someone and they will no longer show up. The only thing I see as a potential problem for the future are people commenting. How to ignore a user that comments on everything but has nothing to say or someone that is annoying or a blatant troll? How to avoid that is the question. Can you block someone from posting a comment on anything you post? Maybe if you ignore that user, they can't comment on your posts? This is a problem to be solved.
