I’ve yet to see forum software that makes it hard for members to use/post?

My problem is not really spam but a bunch of pre-teens running around and posting massive, rapid, rabid chats with each other like it’s a chat room. bbPress completely lacks any management tools to deal with that. If you ban them, they can re-register with a different nickname in less than 30 seconds. If you ban their ip, they just use a randomizing proxy.

On my wordpress side I have it completely programmed with stop-words, how fast each member can post and decent moderation tools. But the forum, which from the start needs those abilities the most, does not have them.
