At the IP level we simply add their IP subnet block to the .htaccess file on the base directory of the server. Actually we just ask Miroslav to do it, he's really good about it (as in he gets it done), and doesn't question when we ban. The user receives a 403: Forbidden error page whenever he tries to access the site.
For lesser offences we may just block someone's name so they get the clue that they can start over as a new alias and clean up their act.
