how to block spam on forums application

We have a forums application that runs jive forums.

We have an issue where a user who is changing usernames and posting spam to the forums.

We want to block this user from posting forums.

Is there a way we can look at the post body compare it to a block keyword list in an iRule and issue a block?

Any sample code will be helpful.

thanks,

Puli

Chris/Aaron,

i did not see any concerns with performance during our load test in stage.

I simulated about 200 request per minute, which is what the max we can simulate without freezing the box.

We are using the default data to collect, not increasing it.

Have'nt moved to production yet. Still looking to.

Will post details once we move to production.

thanks for all your help.

Puli.
