I suppose I could even put them in their own private instance, or an
instance populated by griefers. Don't people realise they've been
toaded and just create a new user account?

How would this help exactly? Is that people who are griefing go
through proxies so their ISP can't be contacted? I assume that to
identify a proxy server you just keep a blacklist of their IP
addresses?
