Give a mild (e.g. 10-point) score down on the appropriate pattern of
their Message-Id, which probably does not change.

1 0 L i s p AppropriateStringHere RET
Read as: "numeric `10', lower id substring permanent".

If you have a sufficiently kind newsadmin, such that NNTP-Posting-Host
is in overviews, then you can arrange to score down on that, since he
probably connects from approximately the same place all the time:

(setq gnus-extra-headers
      '(Keywords To Newsgroups X-Moodwatch NNTP-Posting-Host))

Then you can...

1 0 L e s p NNTP-Posting-Host RET AppropriateStringHere RET
Read as: "numeric `10', lower extra substring permanent, on the extra
header NNTP-Posting-Host" (tab completion works for elements of g-e-h).
