I ban accounts not people.

If someone wants to register again under a new name and email its really difficult to know its them.

Sometimes it's better the devil you know.

I find increasing suspensions can work.
And after the second suspension invoke a permanent ban with out any opportunity to discuss.

I have a prepared permanent ban message to attach to the account.

If then they request there content to be removed I inform them, its not possible at this time as a complaint has been made and criminal proceedings may follow...

Eventually they will go away.

One crazy time I had one member caused world war 3.only to find out the member was 12yrs old...

You know your members best. Go with what you believe to be best for your forum.

I also, create a private topic with the member content, with examples and content, if im ever challenged, I can justify my actions.

Thats worked for me for many years.
