I think it might be a good idea for admin to get involved now, either to explain what action they'll take or to explain why they're not taking any action. The reasons for admin to get involved are:
1)It makes karma a less effective way of signalling the quality of a user's comments
2)IT seems to have happened to several people
3)It upsets people, and makes them less likely to post here
4)It might cause drama (someone has publicly named a karma abuser below)
I'd like to add 5) It is directly discouraging participation of productive users. See here 6) The nature of the downvoting is creating a situation that may be turning LW into a political battleground, which given the goals of the community is a bad idea. (See prior link.)
