There are ways to stop this  fairly easily. Several plugins exist for 
"wordpress" & "SMF"
They use a lookup service for filtering mass spammers. such a system could be 
integrated into OL.
and the results passed back to the anti-spammer service, once listed they would 
just have their edits discarded.
