BigMike:
Adding more to this, by having it membergroup specific you can easily only apply this ban trigger to your first couple of member groups. Then a potential spammer would have to have advanced beyond your first or second membergroup before he could try wasting everyone's time.

On my forum, the 2nd membergroup extends to 124 posts. I would just put the ban trigger active up to that group. That way members who have 125+ posts won't get triggered for simply quoting or discussing about the spam content.

It could be triggered by Keyword, by Phrase, by Sentence, etc.

Better yet, why not just make a SMF Bayesian spam filter?

The Bayes' theorem score of each post will return a value of which a threshold will be set to determine 1) if a ban applies and 2) what level of ban to impose. If a low score was triggered, then just employ like a 10-min ban. If it was a much larger score, then apply a 24-hour ban, etc.

Man I want this so bad I can taste it! I am wondering why this hasn't already been suggested/implicated--!

BigMike:
This would be one killer feature :D
