Need Help??

2. Is there a particular block/range of IP addresses they are posted from?
2. nope, they use a proxy.

Who is "they"? All users, some users, or just the spammers? A single proxy or several?

"they" being the one whom post the spam... : EDIT: i would go on a limb to say they would use whatever resources that they could to post 2 or 3 messages	[reply]

"they" being the one whom post the spam... : So, according to your long and elaborate answer, we know that the spammers use one or more proxies, and the users don't. That's actually great news. Block the proxy/proxies and the spammers are gone. A simple IP-based blacklist should be sufficient.
