I have turned off the ability for new users to edit their posts. They have to hit the 30/30 mark before their account is upgraded. However, this won't stop them from joining and making random posts to old threads. Because of the way they are operating, they aren't being flagged as forum spammers and so they can get away with creating accounts on many forums. So the tools I use won't catch them at registration time...and they know this.
