I did a couple of things to block these (same ugg boots bots).

1. I added “WP-reCAPTCHA” to the registration form – this seems to have halted new registrations for the moment.

2. Kept the forum set so that users must register to post.

3. I left regular comments so anyone can post – akizmet caches everything there.

I wrote a make-shift plugin to prune all the spam-bot-old users just to make sure.

Also check your forum tags – the bots have been gumming those up too.
