Probably the best method is to give more power to your users and let them be MODs - probably vote-to-exile? Yes, it could be abused just like the case of Socrates.

But it's definitely better than blocking IP class which hurts innocent users and useless against trolls under proxy.

I currently have two classes of moderator - one with edit/delete access, and a lower one with the power to hide a post in a "Sin Bin" until a higher-level moderator can judge it.

But with anonymous accounts, I need to provide greater incentive for people to sign in - karma, etc.

Thanks for the reply.
