Shane, does your Forum software let Mods put a user's posts on Moderation?    I moderated a model railroad forum where if someone was unsociable we'd delete the offending post and warn them, and if it happened again put the user on moderation for a week, where their posts had to be approved by a Mod before they were visible, a process that took some time and allowed discussions to cool..  That usually made them wise up; I don't recall having to do it to someone twice.  The only people we banned were spammers

If the software does have this feature, you should have the Admins enable it for you guys...
