What do people gain from spamming your service? Referring especially to the ones that kept going despite error codes being sent their way.

Just bots spamming forms I guess, hoping to get indexed and ranked on google.

The same thing you see on random blogs, I don't think there's anything specific about my service in particular - just badly coded bots that don't have retry logic and blindly spam the same content to thousands of sites that accept comments, content, and pingbacks.

Ahhhh they are trying to collect backlinks. That makes sense.
