I do the same on another board. I delete the post, kick the member and block the IP. It is a little frustrating, but that is what I signed on for when I took the job.

And it isn't a matter of hurting anyone's feelings. Most people have no idea there is a problem and end up thinking you are just being a jerk.

Hang in there buddy ... we feel your pain!
