You can yes but once deleted they can re register where as banning someone stops them posting.

Ban them and make all new members posts moderated for the first 5 posts.

They'll all have multiple changing IP's. Fighting a constant losing battle with it to be honest.

Its not just some guy sat behind a computer logging in and spamming for lol's

I think they already have this on here, the spam is usually able to get around it anyway.

MikeDX managed to stop them posting but they're still able to register and login it seems so that's why they're showing up.

The only thing left is to stop them registering, it needs all the spam users deleting and a few layers of human verification that could only be passed by someone visiting this website who knows the cars/subject.
