Is there a a way to force 'normal' tracking even after a user replies?

I couldn’t find the answer to this-

is there a way to force ‘normal’ tracking state, automatically, despite user reply but only for a particular category/tag?

for example we have a giveaway, and people reply. they don’t care about ‘tracking’ but it sets to tracking. there could be hundreds or thousands of posts and it’s just bloating the query every time the re-enter.

Thoughts on this one or any ways to achieve this?
