When this spurious activity overloads the server, your hosting company is going to take this site down (500) to stop the attack. Been there.
Suggestion:
1. Block the IP (at least temporarily) and implement solutions ASAP.
Cordially,

You're talking to the wrong people. Only moderators are watching the shop right now and we have none of those powers, as previously discussed. There are different IP addresses being used but when I ban someone I check to see if there are other registered users with the same IP address and delete those. Both accounts that were spamming this evening were from different IP addresses.
