Once in a while I get a persistent spammer that can get seemingly limitless email address and IP addresses.

Recently I banned him again and then turned on Registration Approval to review new registrations (usually fruitless.)

The next registration I got was with email Luzifull@gmail.com and IP Address 110.164.249.158.

As a last ditch effort to stop this guy, I tried a google search Luzifull@gmail.com 110.164.249.158

and I got a HIT!

OMG! I disallowed the registration with the reason: "because you're an idiot"

Over the next three days I got 4-5 such registrations, all of them appearing on stopforumspam.com.

PLEASE write a MOD that incorporates this wonderful functionality! (they claim they have an API for this very reason.)
